Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is light wear along the turning edges and corners of the canvas. There is very minor, hairline craquelure in the yellow pigment in the lower left quadrant and at the upper right edge in the face of the white figure. Very faint and scattered surface abrasions are evident. Under close inspection, there is evidence of surface accretions and rubbing along the tacking edges of the panel. Unframed.
