Condition
This canvas is well stretched on a good stretcher. There are no reinforcements on the reverse. The large surface is undisturbed; there are no cracks and no damages. The paint layer has most likely never been varnished and there are no retouches. The painting is in extremely healthy and untouched condition, and it should be hung as is.
