Condition Report
This is an oil on can as, though the back of the work has been sealed by a thin board. Canvas is largely in plane, there is some deformation in the lower half though this is not visible unless under raking light. There is a fine drying rack in the upper right hand corner and another across the right arm of christ. In the lower right hand quandrant there are some small white accretions, appearing to be caused by white paint. Along the lower edge, where the frame meets the canvas there are some minor abrasions. The palest passages of paint display some minor yellowing, but overall in nice presentable and original condition.
