Condition

The following condition report has been provided by Simon Parkes of Simon Parkes Art Conservation, Inc. 502 East 74th St. New York, NY 212-734-3920, simonparkes@msn.com , an independent restorer who is not an employee of Sotheby's. This painting has been reinforced around the edges and restretched. The paint layer is stable and the canvas is now well-stretched. The painting seems to be cleaned and lightly varnished. As best we can tell, there are no retouches and so we recommend the picture be hung as is, if framed.
