Condition report
Original canvas. A few scattered spots of discolouration to varnish, particularly around areas of thicker impasto. Ultraviolet reveals retouching to surface abrasions, upper centre and upper right; a couple of spots of fluorescence to the darker pigments off the lower border but these would appear to be the hand of the artist. Held in a painted gilt frame with some old marks and scratches, particularly to the corners.
