Condition Report

Oil on a metal support. The support is in plane and the paint layers are in a good, stable condition. A regular network of age cracks has developed across the surface. There are tiny losses at the junctions of some of the cracks. In the sky around the figures are thin washes of overpaint. The varnish is clear, even and glossy.
