Condition
Oil on panel. There are two horizontal support bars across the back of the work. There are pinholes at each corner, with a second along the upper edge near the upper right comer, as well as minor frame abrasions, none of which are visible in the current framing. The surface is in overall good condition aside from pigment separation in the floor area and in the background at upper left. The surface is clean and fresh. Under UV light, the varnish has been thickly applied and obscured the picture surface.
