Condition

The canvas has a slightly rigid relining. The painting has been fairly recently cleaned and restored and overall is in good condition, with no major damages or areas of wear apparent. Inspection under UV light reveals only scattered local re-touchings mostly confined to the darker areas of the foliage in the background and smaller details elsewhere. The varnish remains clear and even, the painting should not require any further attention. This lot is offered with a modern stained wood veneered frame with ripple mouldings and gilt sight edge in good condition.
