507

Work: 77,5 x 50 cm

Frame: 98 x 71 cm

 

The painting dedicated 'Aan mijnen vriend Berters'. This painting fits as a consequence nicely in the series of works that were dedicated to people from the immediate environment, a practice that used to happen regularly (see for example a painting, also dated 1876, of Pierre Van Haevermaet dedicated to William Linnig in the City Museum of Sint-Niklaas, inv. number SN.85.7.1, link).

 

Condition: (UV-checked)

- The painting with a minor tear (2cm, see the side branch of the left tree in the foreground).

- Negligible flaking and minor wear.

- The lower left corner slightly lighting up under UV-light.
