Condition
This work is in generally good overall condition. The colour tonality is warmer compared to the catalogue illustration. There are pin-pointed traces of dirt by the upper right and upper left edge, towards the center of the right edge, to the upper central part of the "cretto" and to the lower left side. There are two pin-holes by the lower right corner and along the upper left edge. There are pale traces of dust scattered. The wearing and waving traces on the cotton are inherent to the artist's choice of media and materials. No traces of retouching appear to be visible under UV light.
