Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The colors are bright, fresh and clean. There is evidence of light wear and handling along the edges with very minor and unobtrusive hairline craquelure at the pull margins. Under close inspection, a difference in texture to the black area at the figures right shoulder is likely a result of the screening process from the time of execution. Also under close inspection, a black spot accretion on the letter A in what in the text at the top is visible. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.
