Additional Notes & Condition Report
Lined. Frame rubbing. Scattered cracquelure, heaviest in the woman's face. Appears to be a 2'' repaired tear roughly 4 inches in from the lower left edge (this area also flouresces under the UV light). There is substantial inpainting in the woman's face and hand as well. Masking varnish makes detection of further inpainting difficult. Condition commensurate with age.
