Condition
There is a layer of grime on the surface of the portrait. There are some very minor areas of paint loss, specifically to subject's cheek, and around the edge of the portrait, where the frame rubs against the copper. The glass also has a layer of grime on it, making the portrait appear unfocused. Overall, in good condition.
