After Victor Julien Giraud (French, 1840-1871), "Slave Market", 1884, oil on canvas, painted by L. E. Jardon (French, 19th/20th Century), inscribed lower right "D'apres V. Giraud, L. E. Jardon, Louvre 1884", 36-3/4" x 68". Framed.

In generally good condition with scattered nicks and areas of abrading, particularly at edges where canvas meets frame. Evidence of past restoration; scattered areas of inpainting across canvas. Possible old repairs (with corresponding inpainting) at mid-right and area beneath nude figure's feet. Canvas likely relined but difficult to determine since edges are heavily taped. Faint craquelure. Some dulling of varnish layer. Light layer of surface soiling.
