Condition
Original canvas, the canvas undulates slightly in the top and bottom right quadrants.
There is a horizontal line of loss to the centre of the right hand side of the composition, with further traces of loss to the bottom right hand quadrant, and a small fleck to the centre of the left hand edge, most probably in line with a previous framing. There are minor traces of light surface dirt and studio detritus, particularly visible in the top right quadrant.
Ultraviolet light reveals a small area of florescence around the aforementioned area of loss.
Housed in an ornate gilt and painted wooden frame.
