ERNEST BUCKMASTER (1897-1968), Collins Street 1926

oil on canvas on board
signed and dated lower right: E Buckmaster 26
24.5 x 32cm

PROVENANCE
The David and Susi Caddy Collection

  • Condition: The painting is housed in what is possibly its original frame. The painted surface area is reasonably stable and scattered areas of paint contraction consistent with age. As the work has been laid down on board it is likely that the image has had early, previous conservation down the left side of the image. There is evidence of re-working under ultra violet light (possibly by the artist) more evident down the lower left side of the image. There is pin holes in three corners of the image, likely from time of execution. Areas of unpainted canvas are noticeable on the edges where the image meets the frame. Scattered areas of discolouration and dirt marks, however this work is in good condition.
