Provenance: Burfield Hall, Wymondham, Norfolk
Oil on canvas which has been lined. The paint layers have been softened during the lining process and there is wear and abrasion in the flesh. To the left of the sitter's head is an old paint loss. There are numerous retouchings across the surface which are reasonably well matched to the original. The varnish is even and semi-glossy. There is some wear to the gilding on the frame.
