Description
- Renier Nooms called Zeeman
- A coastal scene with Dutch ships moored offshore
- signed and indistinctly dated lower centre: R.ZEEMAN.16..(?)
- oil on canvas, laid down on panel
Condition
The canvas has been laid down on to an oak panel which has a small bow. The paint surface is dirty but secure and under a discoloured varnish. Some fine craquelure can be made out. Minor paint losses, frame abrasion and a small surface scuff can be made out towards the left edge. Some old discoloured retouchings can be made out in the sky. Inspection under UV light is inconclusive due to the reflective nature of the varnish. The painting would benefit from a clean and a new varnish to improve the overall tonality.
Unframed.
