Condition
The colours are accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is lighter in the original work.
The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined.
There are few faint scratch marks on the surface.
Under Ultra Violet light inspection, several areas fluoresce especially along the four edges and in the middle of the canvas, including on the scratches mentioned above. Some of these careful retouchings are likely contemporary to the work.
This work is in good condition.
