Images before surface restoration
The painting was covered by a very thick darkened and oxidized dammar varnish which was partially blanched and obscured the overall look of the painting. It was partially overpainted and had many darkened and discolored retouches. The varnish and the retouches resulted in a difficulty to fully see the painting.
