This work is in good condition overall. There are some paint losses, mostly concentrated in the white pigment, visible in the catalogue illustration. There are vertical threadlike craquelures scattered around the canvas and mostly concentrated towards the left margin and towards the centre of the painting. Compared to the catalogue illustration, colours are slightly softer.
