EUROPEAN ARTIST (19TH CENTURY) Harem Scene, oil on canvas 173.5 x 105.4 cm (68 1/4 x 41 1/2 in.) CONDITION The canvas is made from two panels, stitched along the upper third, and is relined. Some warping and craquelure apparent along the perimeter. Inspection under UV light shows retouching to perhaps a quarter of the overall surface, much of to the body of the central figure (also apparent to the naked eye). N.B. All lots are sold in as-is condition at the time of sale.
