Condition
This painting is in overall very good condition and requires no further attention. The panel support remains flat and stable. The painting has been recently cleaned. Inspection under ultraviolet light reveals very minimal restoration, save for very minor scattered retouchings in the sky and on the lower margin, and some minor strengthening in the legs of one of the dogs. Offered in a later gilt wood frame with beaded and lambs tongue moulding, in good condition.
