Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The canvas is unlined and well-stretched. The colors are vibrant, and the media layer is stable overall. A faint white vertical drip accretion measuring three inches in length is present at the extreme lower left edge of the canvas, at the edge of the crocodile. Under ultraviolet light inspection, two horizontal line accretions become apparent which run the length of the canvas, approximately eight inches from the bottom edge.
