Condition
The overall tonality is brighter and the surface more detailed in the original work.
The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined.
The surface presents some classic fold marks, inherent to the artist's folding technique. Due to the thin nature of the canvas, it is slightly wavy. There is a wear mark on the upper left corner, and a small stain located on the upper right quadrant.
Under Ultra Violet light inspection there is no evidence of restoration.
This work is in good condition.
