Thence by descent

The work is in very good condition. The canvas is unlined. The surface is richly textured. Under UV light: A few medium strokes and pindot spots of retouching confined to the upper corners, particularly at upper left. There are also very minor spots of inpainting at the extreme bottom corners as well. Otherwise, fine.
