Condition

The board appears to be sound. There are a number of artist's pinholes in the lower right and and lower left corners, and further pinholes not visible in the current frame. There is some light surface dirt throughout. Subject to the above, the work appears to be in overall very good condition. Inspection under ultraviolet light reveals a few very minor instances of fluorescence and possible retouching to the work. The work is held in a simple carved wooden frame, behind glass. Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
