Hammer

£550

Larry Ham (British, 1933-2007), Footballers. oil on canvas, signed 'L Ham' lower right, plain gilt hollow frame with canvas slip. 35½ x 24½in. (90 x 62.25cm.). Original frame. Canvas slightly slack and unevenly stretched - would benefit from attention to the stretcher pegs. Tiny pinhole and raised bump to canvas at top left (presumably where a piece of grit or similar got behind the stretcher). Varnish has broken down along the lower margin and possible wear to paint surface, probably due to damp in storage. A few small scuffs and marks to surface of lighter paint - would definitely benefit from cleaning and re-stretching by a professional.
