Condition
The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue's illustration although the cream colour in the upper part of the original work appears whiter in the catalogue.
The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined.
Some thin craquelures to the black impasto are visible under close-up inspection especially one located at 24 cm from the left edge and 26 cm from the upper edge. A tiny paint loss located at 24 cm from the left edge and 19 cm from the upper edge is visible under very close inspection.
This work is in very good condition.
