Condition
Work is in very good condition. Canvas is not lined. Surface has a rich and textured impasto. Pin dot size loss at lower left edge. Surface slightly dirty with a few small areas of craquelure in thickest white pigments. The colors in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is slightly warmer in the original. Under UV light: a few tiny strokes of inpainting at upper left edge, otherwise fine.
