Condition
The canvas is not lined. There is a thin uneven and discoloured layer of varnish preventing the UV light from fully penetrating. UV examination reveals one small spot of retouching to the centre of the right edge. There is some very minor stable craquelure in places, and some paint shrinkage to the thicker pigment. There is some frame abrasion along all four edges due to previous mounting. This work is in overall good condition.
