Indication of light wear and handling is evident around the edges of the painting, but the paint layers are well-preserved. Upon close observation, minor accretion is visible on the temple (located center right above the door). Under ultraviolet light inspection, there is no sign of restoration. The work is accompanied with the artist's original frame. Framed.
