Condition

The canvas is lined. Close inspection reveals one tiny speck of dirt in the grey pigment towards the upper right quadrant and some very fine lines of stable craquellure. Under UV light, one small area fluoresces towards upper right corner with a smaller one on the left of the signature in the lower right corner. This work is in good condition.
