Condition

The canvas is original. There is one very small dent in the upper right quadrant of the composition with some associating paint lifting; however this is not too distracting and could benefit from some consolidation. Ultra-violet light reveals no sign of retouching. Overall, this work is in good condition and ready to hang. Presented in a silver floating frame.
