There is a speck of surface dirt and matter to the lower left quadrant, and a slight possible rub to the centre of the left hand side, visible upon closer inspection. This excepting the work appears in very good overall condition. Ultraviolet light reveals no obvious signs of fluorescence or retouching. Float-mounted in a white box frame, with an outer gilt frame.
