Condition
The artist's board has been laid on panel, which is even and ensuring a stable support. There is some minor rubbing along the upper left framing edge and some very small scattered lines of craquelure. Ultra-violet light reveals small spots of retouching, notably on the edged of the green curtain. The picture is in overall good condition and ready to hang.
