Condition
The board is sound. The surface is a little dirty and covered with a yellowed varnish. A few flecks of paint have been lost, as there is a minor loss to the lower right hand corner. There are also two small pinholes, and the lower region appears to have endured some light rubbing. Certain pigments fluoresce under UV, though the varnish prevents a conclusive analysis. Framed in a painted wooden frame with decorative plaster molding. Unexamined out of frame.
