PROFESSIONAL ASSESSMENT OF THE CONDITION OF
MARTHA BULLOUGH PORTRAIT
The
canvas was found to be in a fair
structural condition with “minor deformations
and bulging.”
The
edges were secure, but all eight wedges of the wooden framework to which the
work is attached
were missing.
The initial paint surface on the canvas, the ground layer, was
found to be stable. Some scuffing of the paint surface, fine cracks due to age
and shrinkage and craquelure, were noted.
No mold or woodworm.
