Condition
**On the panel with the pyramids, there is a large tear to the bottom center and three smaller tears with subsequent losses - two between the pyramids, and one to the palm tree on the left edge. There is also notable soiling to the lower half.
On the panel with the columns, there are two tears- a significant one to the right of the columns and another to the upper right.
Both examples exhibit losses, flaking, creasing, abrading, cleavage, toning and accretions. Tears and some of the other issues were stabilized in mounting. Condition is often as to be expected with age and material.
Additional photographs are recommended.
