Condition
This work is in beautiful and original condition. It is still on the original strainer. Other than in a small area on the center of the right side, there has been no visible acidification or darkening of the paint layer. There are only 2 retouches these have been applied in the upper center, addressing slight weakness in the fabric. There are a few small spots in the upper center where the paint or gesso did not fill the weave of the linen, but this is original.
