Condition
The canvas is lined. Under UV light, there is one spot of retouching (approx. 1 cm) in the grey pigment in the upper left quadrant, a few further spots above the model's hair and some smaller ones toward the upper edge. Some thin strips also fluoresce along the edges suggesting restored frame abrasion. This work is in good condition.
