Condition
The canvas is not lined. There is a 4 by 2cm. area of retouching to the figure's left temple, a smaller area of retouching to her neck and another small spot of retouching just above the dressline. There is an area of scattered spots of retouching to the upper right quadrant, with some small nailhead-sized retouchings lower down the right edge. All retouching is visible under UV light. Apart from a 1cm. sq. spot of retouching to the far left of the shoulder and some retouching to the bottom left corner, this work is in fairly good condition.
Colours: The colours are deeper and richer in the original.
