Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light wear and handling along the edges of the canvas and along the edges of the artist's painted frame. Under very close inspection, some light and unobtrusive hairline craquelure is visible in the yellow painted areas, all of which appear to be stable. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Framed in artist's frame.
