Condition
Oil on panel. The surface is dirty and covered with a layer of slightly yellowed varnish. There are some areas of minor craquelure in the body of the sitter and about a 1/2 inch area of paint loss in the lower right corner. There's also a very small area of paint loss near the sitter's elbow. Under UV no pigments appear to fluoresce but varnish prevents a conclusive analysis. Held in a wite painted wood frame with plaster molding. Unexamined out of frame.
