This painting is executed on a uniformly thin sheet of copper that is nearly flat. The paint layer is stable, under a clear varnish, which has been unevenly applied. There is an extremely fine craquelure across the surface. In raking light scattered repairs to losses in the darkest area of the painting are visible. These restorations are also visible under ultraviolet light. Further inspection under UV was hindered by the opaque varnish. The painting is in fine state and should be displayed as is. The work is offered in a dark wood Dutch-style frame.
