Condition

This work is in very fresh condition. It has never been removed from its original stretcher. The paint layer is intentionally dry. There are no reinforcements on the reverse. There are no retouches. The canvas is slightly loose on its stretcher. There is a concentrated area of craquelure in the center of the canvas; this area is stable. The work could be hung as is.
