Condition
This work is in good condition overall. There is evidence of light surface craquelure in the green shapes along the left edge, which has results in a few areas of minor paint loss. There is an area of surface craquelure approximately 39 inches from the bottom edge and 26 inches from the left edge, though no paint loss has occurred. Overall there is evidence of wear and handling to the sides, edges, and corners of the canvas, which is visible in some areas as surface soiling.
