Condition
The canvas is strip lined. UV examination reveals a 3.5cm long vertical line of retouching to the right of the signature, and a further few small spots of retouching in places. There is a small triangle shaped hairline crack to the upper part of the extreme left edge and some fine lines of craquelure to some of the impasto pigments. Otherwise, this work is in overall good condition.
Colours: Fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, though overall slightly brighter in the original.
