Condition
The board is flat, even and ensuring a stable support. There are two very minor possible strokes of retouching in the dark pigments in the lower part of the composition and no other notable signs of retouching visible under ultra-violet light. Apart from a couple of very minor, light surface scuffs near the lower framing edge, this work is in good original condition and ready to hang.
Presented in a simple, narrow partially gilt wood frame. The colours are somewhat more vibrant in reality than in the catalogue illustration.
