Condition

This work appears in very good condition overall. There is some evidence of wear at the edges, with minor fine hairline cracking at the pull margins. There is faint dust residue which has adhered to the textured surfaces of the composition. There are areas along the lower edges and bottom corners which fluoresce under UV light, but appear due to handing as there is no inpainting visible under UV light inspection. This work is framed.
