Condition
The board is sound. There is some thin craquelure mostly to the left hand side. There is a small paint loss (visible in the catalogue's illustration) at the lower right and there is a small loss to the extreme lower right corner of the board. There is a small pinhead size hole at the center right edge. There are some small retouching, all visible under UV light, to the center of the composition, to the upper and lower right and a small line along the upper edge. Otherwise, this work is in fair condition.
