Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light wear and handling along the edges including hairline craquelure at the pull margins. The gray painted areas exhibit a light surface soiling but the colors of the figures are bright and fresh. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, three pinpoint drip accretions flouresce lightly, but there does not appear to be any evidence of restoration. Framed.
