Condition

This work is in good overall condition as viewed. There is evidence of light wear and losses at the edges of the work due to abrasions with the frame but this is mostly covered by the frame itself. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals minor restoration at the hair, around the eyes and ears of the figure. Framed.
