Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The canvas is stretched over wood panel. There is a light dust accumulation to the surface of the painting. There is faint time-staining to the unpainted areas of the canvas. Under close inspection, there are some scattered, minor pinpoint surface accretions and scattered faint areas of surface soiling. Under very close inspection there are a few very minor pulls evident to the canvas, likely inherent from the time of execution. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Framed.
