Condition

Oil on stable panel. The work presents well overall aside from surface dirt and dust; scattered finely patterned craquelure; a circular abrasion on the table leg at lower center; and frame abrasion with some associated minor loss at the extreme edges. Under UV: old varnish fluoresces green unevenly, though there is a retouch to the aforementioned abrasion on the table leg and a few retouches scattered along and near the edges.
