Condition

There is craquelure with associated small losses present in areas of thicker paint. A small grey accretion is visible in the sun which is possibly inherent as it does not fluoresce under UV light. This work has been re-lined. UV light: old and new retouchings are visible throughout but particularly in the centre of the work.
