Private Collection, Singapore

This work is in good overall condition as viewed. There is some very slight buckling to the canvas, but this is consistent with the age of the work. There is some craquelure visible only upon very close inspection on the surface of the work, but this is stable and consistent with age. There are a few tiny areas of paint loss, revealing paint layers underneath, but these are only visible upon very close inspection. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals no sign of restoration. Framed.
