Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The canvas is unlined. There is some scattered fine craquelure and pigment separation evident, particularly in the bottom half of the canvas in the brown pigmented areas with a few areas of subtle lifting. There is a very minor, gently raised area in the lower center of the composition. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there are a few scattered areas that fluoresce darkly in the lower 1/4 of the composition. Unframed.
