Condition

The copper support has a slight bend and loss to the lower right hand corner and a small repair on right hand side visible on the reverse. The paint surface is in very good condition overall with minor abrasions to the left hand edge. Inspection under UV reveals scattered retouching to the flesh tones and to the area of landscape beside the left hand figure, corresponding with the repair of the support.
