The condition is good, some slight spotting on the background either side of the lady's head and also a little spotting around her foot. The signature is clear, lower left. The colours are still strong. The framing looks contemporary or near contemporary. It has knocks and scrapes consistent with age. There is some wear to the gilt on the inner rim. It is sealed at the back.
