Dimensions of 125 x 82cm do not include the frame, with the frame the measurements overall are 142 x 100cm, frame looks to be the original and is composition rather than carved wood with a number of old cracks running through the composition, the finish in matted gold and simulated wood grain looks to be the original finish to the frame, other than the cracks and some minor nicks all looks to be in good order, viewed from behind it looks like the work has always been in this frame and never removed from it.
