Condition

This work is in very good condition. The canvas is not lined and is covered with an uneven layer of varnish. The canvas is slightly buckled toward the upper left corner. There are three nailhead-sized losses along the outer left edge (two at the center left edge and one at the bottom left corner) and a few extremely minor fine lines of stable cracking in the darkest red pigment toward the upper right corner. Under UV light: no inpainting is apparent.
