Condition
The canvas is not lined and is slightly loose. Examination under UV light reveals no evidence of retouching. The canvas is slightly undulating, notably towards the upper right quadrant. There is some frame rubbing along the extreme edges. This work is in overall very good condition and could benefit from a re-stretching.
