Condition
The painting is in good condition, as is the canvas, which is clear and taut. Examination under ultraviolet light does not indicate any retouching. There are a few small spots of paint loss: on the upper left corner and on the yellow background (one to the left of the first figure and another to the left of the last figure). Some fine craquelures are present on the white areas and on the right register (on the red paint area) and some fine cracks are found on the upper left corner, but the paint layers are otherwise well-preserved.
The colours of the actual painting are less green-hued in reality. The white is more of a creamy shade, the red is deeper and less orange-tinted while the texture is more obvious in reality.
