Condition

The panel appears to be sound although slightly bowed. There are some small frame abrasions along the upper and lower edges; otherwise the work appears in good overall condition. Under UV light there appear to be two small spots in the red chair above left of the dog's head, another in the arm of the chair right of the dog's chest and a final spot just below the 'S' in the title. Held in a gilt plaster frame.
