Condition

This work is in good overall condition as viewed. There is some cracking to pigment, but this is consistent with the grain of the wood and only visible upon close inspection. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals small and minor spots of restoration along the bottom edge, a spot of restoration at the right edge (at the horizon), and minor restoration at the features of the women's faces. Framed, in the artist's original frame.
