The canvas is not lined. There is some thin craquelure in the lower right quadrant and a very small paint loss. Under UV light, there is a small area of retouching toward the upper left corner and some scattered very small dots of fluorescence (white under UV light) on the woman's leg. Otherwise this work is in very good condition.
