Condition
The canvas is unlined, and impasto is good. There is a curved black line to the lower centre and it is unclear whether this was artist intent. One area of surface loss measuring 3 by 3 mm squared is to the right arm of the right figure. Examination under UV reveals a slightly clouded varnish, but no evidence of retouch or repair. Overall, the work appears to be in good condition.
