Condition

The canvas is not lined and there do not appear to be any signs of retouching under UV light. There are fine lines of paint shrinkage in areas to the green foliage of the background and to the chocolate atop the eclair - all of which are entirely stable. Otherwise this work is in overall very good condition.
