Condition

Not examined out of the frame. The panel appears sound. There is one tiny spot of possible loss and a further very light and small scuff to the centre of the panel. Some of the impasto elements are very slightly flattened. There are some tiny traces of light surface dirt, matter, and possible studio detritus. Subject to the above the work is in very good overall condition. Inspection under ultraviolet light reveals no obvious signs of retouching or restoration. The work is held within a painted and molded composite frame under glass, set within a linen-textured mount.
