Condition

The canvas is not lined. UV examination reveals a thin line of retouching to the lower part of the extreme left edge. There are some fine lines of craquelure in places and a faint horizontal stretcher-bar mark. Otherwise, this work is in overall very good condition. Colours: fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, though overall slightly lighter and fresher in the original.
