Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the image does not convey the richness of the texture and the important relief of the upper part of the pitcher. The work is executed on its original canvas, not relined. Under UV light, there is no evidence of any retouching. This work is in excellent condition.
