Description
- Jean Metzinger
- DEUX MAISONS
signed Metzinger (lower left)
- oil on canvas
- 27.4 by 35.2cm., 10 3/4 by 13 7/8 in.
Provenance
Private Collection, France (acquired in May 1957)
Condition
The canvas is not lined. There is an intermittent line of retouching visible under UV light, mainly to the left and lower edges, to cover frame rubbing at the edge of the canvas. Apart from a couple of nailhead-sized spots of retouching towards the upper left corner, also visible under UV light, this work is in good condition.
Colours: Overall fairly accurate although the colours are slightly more subtle in the original.
