Condition

The panel is flat, even and ensuring a stable structural support. As visible in the catalogue illustration, there are some small scattered fine lines of craquelure which are not visually distracting. Ultraviolet light reveals an old, even varnish layer which is quite opaque, however there are no apparent signs of retouching. This painting is in good condition, and its appearance could be further enhanced if desired with a light surface clean. Held in a simple gilt frame.
