Condition

The work is in good condition overall, as is the canvas, which is clear and taut. There are indications of minor wear and handling around the edges, but the paint layers are well-preserved and stable. Upon close observation, there is a paint loss located near the upper left margin. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals minor spots of restoration, which are located on the upper left quadrant. The colors are more vibarant in reality than the illustrated in the catalogue. Framed.
