Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration. The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined. Some stabilized hairline cracks are visible on the black impastos located in the lower right quadrant. Under Ultra Violet light inspection, one light stain located on a black impasto in the center of the right edge fluoresces, likely due to the artist's process. This work is in very good condition.
