The Charge
Materials:
oil on canvas
Size Notes:
134.5 by 162.5cm., 53 by 64in.
Markings:
ABIODUN OLAKU
Condition:
The canvas is stable and unlined. There is separation in the areas of darker pigment, mainly to the horses's bodies (ref images). Slightly uneven varnish. Stretcher marks are visible to the left hand and central vertical bars, and there is a large dent to the canvas to the lower half of the left framing edge that may be corrected through restretching. The work is otherwise in good condition. Examination under ultra-violet light reveals no obvious repairs or retouching. Further Enquiries: Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6323 or email [email protected] if you have any questions regarding the present work. The lot is sold in the condition it is in at the time of sale. The condition report is provided to assist you with assessing the condition of the lot and is for guidance only. Any reference to condition in the condition report for the lot does not amount to a full description of condition. The images of the lot form part of the condition report for the lot provided by Sotheby's. Certain images of the lot provided online may not accurately reflect the actual condition of the lot. In particular, the online images may represent colours and shades which are different to the lot's actual colour and shades. The condition report for the lot may make reference to particular imperfections of the lot but you should note that the lot may have other faults not expressly referred to in the condition report for the lot or shown in the online images of the lot. The condition report may not refer to all faults, restoration, alteration or adaptation because Sotheby's is not a professional conservator or restorer but rather the condition report is a statement of opinion genuinely held by Sotheby's.
