In overall good condition. Examination under UV light reveals slight, meticulous, inpainting along the left outer edge and at upper left along the top outer edge (likely a result from old frame rubbing). For proof, we notice slight abrasions still untouched at the bottom of the left outer edge and on the top of the right outer edge. Otherwise no other sign of inpainting. We do notice a heavy layer of old green varnish in the darker areas of the oil. Additional images available upon request.
