Purchased at the above sale by the present owner

Condition

The artist's panel is flat and even. Under ultra-violet light the varnish layers fluoresce quite opaquely, however there do not appear to be notable visible signs of retouching. The painting would benefit from a light surface clean, however it is otherwise in good overall condition. Presented in a decorative gilt frame, with scroll-shaped ornaments.
