STRUCTURE
This picture is relined and in very good condition with strong colours throughout. There are two small vertical scratches to the paint surface in the upper right quadrant, which are minor and only visible upon close inspection. There are no signs of craquelure and the paint surface is clean and appears stable.
UNDER ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT
There are very small areas of very fine infilling to the back of the terrier but this has been very sensitively executed.
FRAME
This picture is contained in a moulded plaster frame (in good condition).
