Condition
The canvas is not lined. UV examination reveals a spot of retouching to the lower left corner, and a 2cm area of retouching which possibly relates to a repaired tear, visible on the reverse. There is a minor spots of pigment loss, predominantly to the lower center of the composition. There are some very fine lines of stable craquelure. Otherwise this work is in good overall condition.
