The canvas has been lined. There are a few instances of thin and stable cracking in the the thickest areas of pigment. The canvas is slightly dirty and would benefit from a professional cleaning. Under UV light: a thick layer of varnish is difficult to read through, but no inpainting is apparent. Overall the work is in good condition.
