Work is in overall very good condition. Canvas is not lined. The edges are reinforced with tape. There is a tiny pindot of paint loss in the lower right corner. A few stable hairline craquelure are visible in the thickest areas of white pigment on the figure's body. Under UV light: a varnish impedes thorough examination but small spots of fluorescence are visible along the extreme upper left edge, in the background pigment to the lower left and upper right of the figure and to her lower torso.
