Condition
Painting re-lined.
The ultra violet light reveals light fliorescent varnish dishomogeneously spread over the surface.
There are small retaouches over the leg of the character in the middles wearing the white dress and over the chest of the one in blue; some retouches over the water near the nymphes and along the edges.
The overall condition as to the state of preservation is very good.
