Thomas Butterworth (British, 1768-1842)
Untitled (Ships in a Tempest)
oil on canvas
15 3/4 x 20 inches.
This lot is located in Chicago.
Fine Art Framed dimensions 21 x 25 inches.
Appearing in overall fairly good, stable, and ready to hang condition. The paint surface has a fairly even pattern of craquelure throughout. There are a few areas of paint loss around the edges where the canvas contacts the frame. Examination under UV light reveals evidence of restoration and inpainting in the upper half of the painting along a line (not visible to the naked eye) running from the upper left corner to the upper right corner approximately 1 inch into the paint surface. The back of the canvas is waxed and appears to be relined to stabilize the canvas. The painting is not signed. Additional images are available upon request.
