Condition

The canvas has been tightly stretched and lined. The surface has been varnished and is yellowing slightly. Under UV light, it seems the piece has been restored a number of times, with some older and some more recent retouches scattered throughout. The majority of the restoration has been in the foreground, in the lower right quadrant and a section along the upper part of the right edge. There are some stretcher markings down the middle of the canvas that have also been retouched. Overall, it is in good condition.
