Craquelure is visible throughout the work. There is a stretcher bar mark running horizontally across the center of the canvas in addition to stretcher bar marks along the edges of the canvas. The varnish appears to be inconsistently applied in the lower left quadrant in two small areas. Under ultraviolet inspection, there are small areas of in-painting present in the upper quadrants of the canvas. Additionally, there is minor in-painting present on the first two letters of the artist signature. Overall, the work is in generally good condition.
