Condition
The canvas is not lined. Examination under UV light reveals no evidence of retouching. There are some flecks of pigment loss to the corners and extreme edges and there is some craquellure in places particularly to the yellow pigment of the background with some associated minor pigment loss in places, notably towards the centre of the right edge, which would benefit from stabilization. This work is in overall good condition.
