Condition Report

The painting has been re-lined. There are two areas where you can see old restorations from the front. In the green skirt and in the upper right corner. Other small areas show in-painting under UV light. The signature does not "light up" under UV light.
Frame size is 64 3/4 x 85 inches.
Our opinion is that the painting has been cut-down at some point, as the column is cut-off at the top, and the boys shoe is cut-off on the bottom edge of the painting.
