Condition
It has not been possible to see the work entirely unframed. The canvas is not lined. There is a milky varnish preventing UV light from fully penetrating, however examination under UV light appears to reveal no evidence of retouching. There is some frame rubbing along the extreme edges. This work is in overall very good condition.
