Condition
The canvas is not lined. There is a thick layer of varnish, preventing the UV light from fully penetrating. However, there do not appear to be any signs of retouching under UV light. There is a very thin line of paint shrinkage close to the rightmost figures. Otherwise, this work is in overall good condition.
Colours: overall fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, though overall slightly less pink in the original.
