Condition
The canvas is unlined and tightly stretched. The painting has been varnished and there are some areas where the varnish has begun to lift slightly particularly in the left side lapel of the man's jacket, a spot to the right of the man's hat and another small spot under his hat. Under UV light inspection those areas mentioned fluoresce as potential areas of retouches. There is another retouch in the man's left arm
