Condition

Oil on canvas. The surface is dirty and covered with a layer of slightly yellowed varnish. There are three very small holes (from nails for framing) that are barely visible on the far left edge. In overall fine condition. Under UV no pigments appear to fluoresce but varnish prevents a conclusive analysis. Held in a gold painted wood frame with plaster molding. Unexamined out of frame.
