Some fine vertical wriggle marks in the paint where it was pressed down for the re-lining. These show more in the wall beyond the planking than elsewhere, otherwise looks good, signed and dated lower right. Housed in a later gilt and grey scroll frame, which is in good condition. Christies sale labels verso.
