Follower of Sir Peter Lely Follower of Sir Peter Lely Portrait of a girl, half-length, in a green and white dress and red wrap, holding an orange oil on canvas, painted oval 76 x 63cm, in a contemporary carved giltwood frame Condition Report: The painting is executed in oil on a canvas support which has been lined. The canvas tension is good and the picture is in plane. The paint layers are in a good condition overall. There is a network of age and impact cracks across the surface, in some areas are slightly raised. The varnish has degraded, becoming matte and dull. There are areas of overpaint, mainly located in the background, which are well matched to the original. There is a thick layer of surface dirt on the varnish which is contributing to the matte surface.
