oil on board
75.5 x 63cm
Oil on board in honest condition, would benefit from a light clean, a little fine but stable craquelure running through the skin tones, no sign of any signature, old probably original gilt gesso scroll frame, overpainted and looking a little tatty with later added title plaques, no inscriptions verso.
