Condition

The canvas is not lined. There is a milky varnish preventing the UV light from fully penetrating, however UV examination reveals a few fine lines of retouching to the centre of the composition. There are fine lines of craquelure predominantly to the green background which appear to have been stabilised. This work appears to be in good overall condition.
