Condition

Condition: This work is in very good condition.Upon closer inspection, a thin layer of dust overall and two pinhole-sized paint loss can be noticed to the upper left edge.The canvas is well lined. A 5cm restoration mark can be noticed under UV light, most likely due to an old cut. The work is not framed. Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are accurate, with the overall tonality tending more towards a softer and brighter colour palette in the original work.
