Condition
The work is in good condition overall, as is the silk, which is free from foxing and holes. There are indications of wear and handling, along with associated delicate scuffs located mainly on the top margin and lower register. Upon close observation, indications of faint runs are evident, which is consistent to the age of the painting. However, paint layers are well-preserved and stable. Examination under ultraviolet light shows no indication of restoration. Framed.
