Condition

This work is in good overall condition as viewed. There is evidence of light wear along the edges of the work due to abrasions with the frame. There are some small paint losses, mostly at the bottom left quadrant. There is some hairline craquelure, visible upon close inspection, but this is consistent with the age of the work. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals some restoration along the bottom edge of the work. Framed.
