Description

  • Willem Romeyn
  • A panoramic landscape with herders and their cattle in the foreground
  • oil on canvas

Condition

The canvas has quite a firm relining but the paint surface is not overly flattened as a result and is secure and under a fairly dirty varnish. Inspection under UV light is somewhat impeded by this varnish although some scattered retouchings do fluoresce, particularly in the sky. Overall the painting is in fair condition and offered in a later composite gilt wood frame with some damages.
