Condition
The wood panel is warping. Paint loss is intermittently spread along the top and bottom edges; however, the overall paint layer does appear stable. Under ultra-violet inspection, fluorescing does occur but this is more than likely inherent to the pigments used by the artist. Overall, this work is in generally good condition.
