Condition

The canvas is not lined. Under UV light: a thick layer of varnish is difficult to read through but there appear to be strokes of inpaniting along all edges to address prior frame abrasion. Also, there are a few small strokes of inpainting on the left and right of the saccrecoeur to address some minor cracking. Otherwise fine, the work is in good condition.
