This work is in overall good condition. The canvas is unlined. There is scattered fine craquelure throughout the composition. There is gentle buckling to the canvas at all four corners. There is light surface dirt. The work would benefit for ma cleaning. There is what appears to be light blooming to the canvas along the right edge. Under UV light: there is no in-painting apparent.
