Condition
This work is generally in good condition. There are three series of craquelures, two are along the the top edges and one is at the left edge of the painting. Minor accretion can be seen around the edges, but is only visible upon close inspection. Having examined the work under ultraviolet light, there appears to be no evidence of restoration.
