David Woodlock (British, 1842-1929),
A Venetian scene with friends sharing an umbrella passing San Marco on a rainy day,
Watercolour on paper,
Signed upper left,
25cm x 17cm,
Framed and glazed
The painting is framed under glass and has not been removed for inspection. The paint surface appears to be in good condition, showing no obvious damage, deterioration or foxing. The colours remain strong, but may have faded somewhat over time. There is a darker area in the upper left quadrant, but the artist's signature runs partially over this, suggesting the area is as the artist intended. The paper shows a slight wave across the surface, but sits largely flat at the edges of the mount. The frame shows various small losses to the moulded details. The glass would benefit from cleaning.
