Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light wear and handling along the edges including some minor hairline craquelure at the pull margins, visible only upon close inspection. The colors are bright and fresh. Under raking light, some pinpoint spot accretions are visible and some scattered outward protrusions to the canvas are visible. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there are areas around the edges which fluoresce darkly and appear to have benefitted from previous restoration. Unframed.
