Condition

This work is in overall very good condition. The panel is flat and even, and under ultraviolet light there do not appear to be any signs of retouching. The painting has quite a heavy, dirty varnish. The greens in the original are slightly richer and darker than in the catalogue illustration. Presented in a very decorative gold-painted frame.
