Condition
The following condition report was kindly provided by Simon Parkes Art Conservation, Inc.: This work has been restored and is generally in good condition. The canvas is mounted onto a piece of board. Although there is some unevenness to the surface, particularly in the upper left and in the center right, the paint layer is stable and the canvas can remain on this support. The paint layer is clean, varnished and retouched. Under ultraviolet light, one can see a few spots of retouching to the right of her left forearm, in her lips beneath her nose, in the shadow of her cheek on the left side of the face, and around the rim of her hat. There are a couple of random spots of retouching above and in the spindle in the lower left, and in the upper left, upper center and upper right. The hands show no retouches. The work can be hung as is.
