Condition

This work is generally in good condition. Upon close examination, there are webs of hairline craquelures especially in the lower-right quadrant and spots of pinpoint paint loss in the upper- and lower-center portions of the work. There are mild cracks mostly concentrated in the impasto near the upper-left corner and edges. When examined under the ultraviolet light, there appears to be no evidence of restoration.
