oil on copper, an oval
12¼ by 16¾ in.; by 31.2 by 42.5 cm.

Renowned Art Dealer Fabrizio Moretti and The Strokes' Fab Moretti Collaborate

Condition Report:
The copper is flat and stable. A decorative image reads well. There is a thin, diagonal scratch that is barely visible between the praying figure and the Virgin. Some minor dots of loss are scattered, like on the bag of the figure at far left. Some small dots of retouching that have discolored are scattered here and there like in the top left quadrant. These scattered, small dots of retouches fluoresce under UV. Offered in a giltwood, oval-shaped frame.

Provenance:
Private collection, France, circa 1990;

With Bob Haboldt, 2005.
