Condition
The board is sound. There is a tiny fleck of paint loss along the lower left edge and some very small areas of craquelure in the upper right quadrant. Otherwise, the paint surface is in good overall condition with areas of thick impasto.
Under ultraviolet light, certain pigments fluoresce and these appear to be the hand of the artist.
Held under glass in a gilt plaster frame; unexamined out of frame.
