Description
- Scipione Pulzone
- Portrait of a lady, bust length
- oil on copper, oval
Condition
The support consists of a single, stable, flat copper panel. The paint surface is clean and in relatively good condition under a glossy varnish. There are some minor paint scratches and a larger dent centre right in the background. Some retouching work can be seen by the naked eye in her right check and inspection under UV light confirms this, as well as revealing some other minor scattered retouching work.
Offered in a rectangular carved gilt wood frame structurally sound with some significant losses to the gilding.
