Condition
Oil on plywood.
From a first hand inspection there are two/three losses of the support along the right-hand edge (one also visible from the catalogue's picture); one small vertical scratch over the woman's feet (also visible form the catalogue's picture); the top left-hand corner looks rounded and there is a small loss of support along the edge cm 1 circa and cm 7 from the left-hand side corner.
The ultra violet light reveals a light fluorescent varnish homogeneously spread over the surface. There is a tiny retouch (mm 4 diameter) in the background over the woman's head.
The overall condition as to the state of preservation is very good.
