拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

The canvas is reinforced on the reverse with a glue lining. The paint is stable on the support and there is a fine craquelure in natural light. The varnish is yellowed and cloudy. Light scuffing due to frame abrasion is visible along the right edge. Under ultraviolet light fine strokes of strengthening fluoresce along the lower half of the proper left side of the woman’s face, as do a few thin lines around the bow at upper left and along the extreme edge of the canvas. The painting can be displayed in its current state but would likely benefit from a cleaning and sensitive restoration of the slightly discolored areas of strengthening.
