Condition

There are two minor scratches and an indentation towards the right edge. There is a fine craquelure across the work, although the surface is stable. The surface of the work is dirty and would benefit from a professional clean. Held in a gilt wood and plaster frame with a hessian slip. Inspection under ultra violet light reveals no evidence of retouching.
