Condition
The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is lighted and a bit more contrasted in the original work.
There are three tiny dents by the lower edge, at the center, visible only under very close inspection. There are some very faint, stabilized, hairline cracks scattered throughout the canvas. There is one small spot that has been restored, located at the center of the lower part of the canvas, and visible on the reverse.
Under UV light, the four edges fluoresce, likely due to a restoration undergone due to a former frame.
This work is in very good condition overall.
