Condition report
The canvas has been relined. There is a protrusion to the canvas, right of the sitter's head. Retouching visible to the naked eye, upper right and left. Traces of repaired tears, upper right and off the right hand border to the red curtain. Ultraviolet light suggest retouching to aforementioned tears but the varnish prevents a conclusive reading. held in the original plaster gilt frame with a few losses to mouldings but sound overall.
