Condition

Under the naked eye: The painting appears in very beautiful condition. It has been relined and cleaned correctly most probably at the beginning of the 20th century. Under U.V. light: We notice some traces of green, irregular and old varnish. We also notice a 2 cm. long restoration in the middle of the leaf, as well as another point in the background, between the plums. We can distinguish some little wears that let appear the yellow preparation around the plum, on the left of the grapes.
