Condition
This work is in very good condition. The canvas is lightly lined and the edges are reinforced with tape. A close inspection reveals a tiny spot of paint-loss in the upper left corner, barely visible when framed. There is no evidence of retouching visible under UV light but the surface is slightly dirty and might benefit from a light clean.
