Condition

The colours are fairly accurate with the catalogue's illustration despite the overall tonality is lighter in the original work. The work is on its original canvas and is not relined. Apart from a crack with a slight paint lifting in the black paint at 30 cm from the top edge and 37 from the left, the surface is intact. Under UV light, there is no evidence of any retouching. This work is in very good condition.
