Condition

This work is in very good condition. There is very minor craquelure in a small area approximately 50 cm to the top edge and 40 cm to the left. One can see a horizontal light white mark across the surface, about 30 cm towards the bottom. There is another white mark under the artist's signature, presumably inherent to the artist's working process. Under UV light there is no evidence of restoration.
