THE BLUE LADY
Signed J. Ballavoine (ur)
Oil on canvas
18 1/8 x 15 1/8 inches (46.0 x 38.4 cm.)

Condition: Dirty varnish. Frame rubbing. Craquelure throughout. Visible stretcher lines. Few surface scratches at far right center, and a one inch surface scratch in the ribbon around her neck. Scattered spots of inpainting in her hair. Some of the green pigments along her left shoulder and in the background fluoresce under UV light. I cannot determine if this is restoration or pigments used by the artist.
