Unframed; height: 11 1/2 in x width: 14 in. Framed; height: 17 in x width: 20 in. The painting has creases throughout the recto along the wooden pattern of the board. There are several losses to the center of the painting, creating vertical lines following the wooden pattern. The right side of the painting is bent backward, which is natural given that the painting is done on the board. There are a few areas of paint loss to the extreme edges. As shown in the listing image, the right side of the board does not fit to the frame. From the verso, the board is darkened over time and has several areas of loss. Wear to the frame. Despite several damages shown in the painting, there is no visible sign of restoration under UV light. Please contact us for a detailed condition report.
