The painting is painted on a mahogany panel made of one board, beveled to each edge. The support is stable as is the paint surface. In natural light there is a small chip to the panel 4 cm. above the lower edge. There is no evidence of recent retouching. Traces of the original pencil drawing can be seen. Examination under UV light confirms the above. The painting appears to have been delicately cleaned. The vanrish has been partially cleaned around the dog, the green background and the signature are beneath an older varnish. In a modern brass frame (approx. 24 x 30 x 4 cm.).
