Condition

Canvas is not lined. The surface exhibits a layer of varnish and scattered surface dirt. Under UV light: 1 very small stroke of inpainting is visible in the extreme upper left corner and 1 pindot of inpainting is visible to the right of the large white flower in the figure's hair. Though the layer of varnish is difficult to read through, no other inpainting is apparent. Overall the work is in very good condition.
