Condition
This work is in good condition overall. There is evidence of wear and handling to the edges, resulting in some hairline craquelure along the extreme edges. The canvas is slightly loose on the stretcher, so it is buckling slightly at the center and there are faint stretcher bar impressions along the bottom edge and at the upper left corner. There is scattered evidence of craquelure. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Framed.
