An Atlanta Overture: The Personal Collection of Carol Ann Blumenthal Klotz

Frame: 37 x 29 inches.
The canvas is lined. The paint surface is fairly thin and flat due to the lining process. There is fine, flat craquelure in the dark background at upper half. There are large areas on inpainting on the hair, which have pigment separation throughout. Under UV light: extensive inpainting to pigment separation on the flesh colors, including face, chest and arm, as well as hair, blue drapery and area to the right of figure. The bow on top of the frame shows signs of extensive repairs and loss of guilding.
