Condition
The canvas has been strip-lined. Two faint stretcher marks run horizontally through the center of the composition. Some very minor abrasion has occurred to the extreme outer corner of the canvas. The colors appear fresh and vibrant. Under UV light: thin lines of inpainting run horizontally across the stretcher marks. A few nail-head-sized spots of inpainting visible to lower-left between stretcher marks as well as a quarter inch in diameter spot to extreme upper right corner of composition. Overall the work is in very good condition.
