Condition
STRUCTURE
The canvas has been lined.
PAINT SURFACE
The painting appears to be in good condition, with no apparent extant damage or loss of paint. There is an old and discoloured varnish overall.
ULTRAVIOLET
Examination under ultraviolet light reveals scattered minor retouching, and infilling to craquelure along the stretcher lines in the upper section of the picture. UV also confirms the discolouration and opacity of the varnish.
FRAME
Held in a gilded neo-classical style frame, with an erroneous label attributing the picture to Richard Wilson.
