Condition
The relining of the canvas has not overly flattened the paint surface. The paint surface is under a slightly discoloured varnsih and appears a little sunken in the brown tones centre left. No damages are visible to the naked eye and inspection under UV light reveals only small speckled retouchings. Offered in a wooden frame with minor losses.
