Condition

The canvas is lined, the edges are covered with tape, and there is frame abrasion at the extreme edges. There appear to be two horizontal scuffs through the top of the woman's hair that extends into the background. There appear to be possible surface accretions in a vertical pattern that extend left of center from the top edge to the woman's right arm. Under UV: a few scattered dots of inpainting in the background and dots and lines in the figure.
