Condition
The following condition report was kindly provided by Simon Parkes Art Conservation, Inc.:
This painting is in lovely condition. The canvas is unlined. The paint layer has most likely never been cleaned and will respond well to cleaning. The paint layer is stable and there do not appear to be any paint losses or damages. The painting could be hung as is although cleaning would brighten the palette considerably.
