Acquired from the above by the present owner circa 1983

This work is in good condition overall. The canvas is unlined and well-stretched. The colors are vibrant, and the media layer is stable. A fine line of frame abrasion is present along each of the edges of the canvas approximately 1/4 inch inward from the extreme edge, most noticeably along the lower edge. Under ultraviolet light examination, a varnish becomes apparent. A few scattered spots of inpainting become apparent along the extreme left edge of the canvas.
