Condition: Scattered areas of minute losses, craquelure, wear to edges, including the "e" in the signature, likely from contact with the frame. Estimate $4,000-6,000 The losses are pinpoint-sized losses in the areas of craquelure. These areas have subtle cupping, so more losses in the future are possible. The work will benefit from cleaning.
