Condition

The canvas has been lined with wax. The surface is still textured and the colors are rich overall. Under UV light: a 1-inch horizontal stroke of inpainting is visible toward upper right and a couple smaller, very minor strokes are visible toward upper center. A masking layer of varnish is difficult to read through. Overall the work is in generally good, stable condition.
