Condition
The canvas is not lined. Close inspection reveals some tiny paint losses located in the upper centre edge. Under UV light, this area fluoresces with some thin strips along left and right edges suggesting repaired frame abrasion. A smaller spot located near to the wrist and a tiny spot located in the brown pigment in the model's right leg fluoresce as well. The work is in very good condition.
