Condition

This work is clean and not visibly varnished. The board is very slightly concave, but not disturbingly so. There is no instability. While the darker colors seem to be in original state, discoloration in the white pigment may have received some broad restorations. It can be seen that some of the paint around the profile of the white shape has been scraped by the artist, and there do not seem to be losses here. It is recommended that the work be hung as-is.
