Condition
This work is in good condition. The surface is richly-textured and the pigments remain fresh and vibrant. The canvas is not lined but appears to have been quite recently re-stretched. There is a small spot of paint-loss to the figure's left leg & another towards the lower right corner. Under UV light: some original pigments fluoresce and some retouching apparent to old frame abrasion along extreme perimeter.
