Condition

The canvas is not lined. The surface is slightly undulating throughout and there are some thin, stable cracks particularly in the left half of the canvas. There are scattered losses around the extreme perimeters due to prior frame abrasion. There is a layer of varnish on the surface. Under UV light there are a few pindot retouches near the lower right corner. Otherwise fine. This work is in generally good condition.
