Dans le goût de Dirk Bouts

Ce tableau est un pastiche d'une oeuvre à la manière de Dirk Bouts. Il a été réalisé dans les années 1900. Il est dans un bel état de conservation général. On voit un réseau de craquelures mais pas de nature à gêner la lecture. Il a une importante fente verticale tout le long du bord droit. A la lampe UV, on voit un repeint au niveau du buste de la Vierge. This painting is a pastiche made in the manner of Dirk Bouts circa 1900. It is well preserved. We can see some cracks but really minor ones. A large split can be seen along the right edge. Under the UV light we can see a restaurated area on the Virgin's chest.
