Condition
Good condition. Work has a wax lining. There are 2 small repaired punctures: one 3 inches below center of painting and the other in dark brown area in lower right. Under UV light, there are scattered nailhead-size spots of inpainting in the black pigments. Several other pigments fluoresce, but appear to be original.
