This relined canvas is held under tension and remains stable. The naturally dark picture has thinned over time, however the expressive brushwork is highly appreciable. Ultraviolet examination reveals restoration in the shoulder of the saint as well as in the light expressive brushstrokes throughout the canvas, particularly in the upper left, along the saint’s ear, throughout his beard and in the background.
