Condition Report

The painting is executed in oil on a canvas support which has been lined. The picture is in plane and the paint layers are in a good, stable condition overall. There are a few small, scattered areas of retouching, in some areas covering cracks. The retouching is well matched to the original. The varnish has slightly yellowed with age but is acceptable, even and glossy.

Framed 116 x 133cm
