Condition
Oil on canvas laid down on cradled panel. There are a few tiny pinholes on the canvas surface near the center of its right half. Under UV light: areas of exposed canvas and areas of varied paint thickness fluoresce, but no inpainting is apparent. Overall the work is in very good condition.
