To the unaided eye, this piece appears to be in very good condition.

Areas of potential restoration are located at the left edge, 2" from the top of the piece; 3" from the left, 1/4" from the top; 3 1/2" from the left, 2 1/2" and 3" from the top; 7" from the left, 2" from the top; 3 3/4" from the right, 1/2" from the top; 2" from the right, 3" from the top; 1/2" from the right, 2 1/2" and 3 1/2" from the top. These areas are only visible under ultraviolet light. The piece is framed in a semi-ornate antiqued gold molding with a linen liner. The frame is in good condition although there is some gold leaf chipping off. The bottom back right corner of the frame has a 1" chip in it and the bottom edge has areas that have been touched up with sharpie.
