Sale, London, Christie's, 27 November 1985, lot 75
Condition
Near 5 o'clock the gold border has smudged and run into the black doublet. At almost 12 o'clock another area has flaked off, this includes some of the blue background. The skin tones have almost certainly faded but it is nonetheless a very imposing portrait.
