Condition
The medium is oil on canvas, the canvas is not lined. The work is in good overall condition. There is some minor craquelure throughout and some surface dirt. Under UV, there are three small areas of retouching along the top edge, the furthest to the left in the extreme upper left corner. The colors are clear and the impasto is nicely retained. The work presents very well.
