Condition

The canvas has been laid on board. There is a layer of light surface dirt and the varnish has slightly discoloured. There is a small chip to the paint surface in the top left corner and minor flecks of paint-loss elsewhere. There are minor surface scratches and some light abrasion in the lower right corner. The border shows faint marks from a previous frame. UV light reveals an opaque layer of varnish which prevents a more conclusive examination. Held in an ornate gold plaster frame. Unexamined out of frame.
