Condition
Condition: Very Good
To the unaided eye, this piece appears to be in very good condition. Inspection under ultraviolet light reveals a normal fluorescence of the artist's pigments. There are no signs of restoration. There is a small amount of craquelure located in the upper center portion of the piece. The piece is framed in an antiqued gold and antiqued stained wooden frame with a linen liner. The frame is in good to fair condition with some scuffs and chips around the corners and lower edge. The linen is discolored separating from the liner. Both frame and liner have some separation in the corners. Verso: [sticker attached to back of panel] Owings-Dewey Fine Art, Santa Fe, NM
