Condition

Canvas is not lined. Canvas is slightly undulating in stretcher. A small surface scuff is apparent at the extreme lower right corner. Under UV light: a thick layer of varnish is difficult to read through. There appear to be a few scattered retouches localized in areas at the lower right corner, in the center of the upper left quadrant, and along the extreme right and left edges. All retouches appear fairly minor. Overall the work is in very good condition.
