Condition
"The following condition report has been provided by Henry Gentle, an independent restorer who is not an employee of Sotheby's.
The original canvas is lined. The surface is sound. The canvas is coarse weaved and the paint surface is thin. As a result the paint layer has been abraded and extensively augmented with previous restoration. Under u-v light this restoration is apparent along with the remains of an old varnish."
