Interior with lady sat at a dressing table, her maid beyond,
36 x 30in.
Estimate £800-1,200

Cleaned, relined and restored probably 20 years ago or so, canvas remains tight, a fine but stable craquelure running through all of the paint, slight stretcher mark showing across the top of the work where the surface has a slightly matted effect, overall looks like it would benefit from a light clean, signed Noble in the lower right corner, housed is an ornate overpainting gesso frame which is in good condition but also extremely heavy therefore making any shipping costs quite expensive.
