Description
- Alexandre Jean Noël
- Ships on a stormy sea, with figures on the shore
- Gouache
Provenance
Sale, New York, Sotheby's, 14 January 1992, lot 67
Condition
Apart from a little very minor abrasion at edges, surface of gouache in generally good condition. A little local bubbling at the lower right. Some very minor foxing. Sheet seems to have been laid down on linen, which has subsequently been removed again, so remains of glue on reverse have left the sheet heavier than it would naturally be, though this does not seem to be having any adverse effect on the drawing itself. Sold in a modern gilded frame.
