Condition
The canvas is not lined. Inspection under UV light reveals some scattered spots of retouching to the background as well as spots and lines of retouching to the sitters right arm, the largest measuring approx. 2cm. There are fine lines of craquelure, most notable to the upper left quadrant and to the sitter's arms. The impasto is thick and rich. This work is in overall good condition and may benefit from a clean.
