Condition
This painting unlined. The painting appears to be yellowed, likely due to discolored varnish, and would benefit from a cleaning. Faint horizontal stretcher bar marks are visible, as are fine diagonal ridges across selected areas of the canvas. Under UV, small touch-ups are revealed in the coat of the conductor and the face of the lute-player.
