Condition
Original canvas. Apart from a few tiny spots of retouching visible under ultraviolet light in the body of the horse and in the sky above; some localised hairline craquelure in some of the black pigments in the horse and lower left; and some light surface dirt, this work is in very good overall condition and is ready to hang.
