Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light wear and handling along the edges and at the four corners. There are a few minor and unobtrusive abrasions to the surface. There is fine drying craquelure which appears to be stable. There is a 1 inch area along the left edge halfway from the bottom which fluoresces darkly under ultraviolet light. This work has recently benefited from a light surface cleaning by Terrence Mahon. Please note the medium of this work is oil on canvas.
