Condition

The canvas is lined. Examination under UV light reveals a few small lines and dots of retouching in places, most predominately to the upper part of the right and left edges, towards the right part of the lower edge and to the upper left quadrant. There is a pinhole at the lower right corner. There is a slight frame rubbing along the edges. This work is in overall good condition and could probably benefit from a light clean.
