Condition

The painting is in good condition, as is the canvas, which is clear and taut. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals no indication of retouching. There is a very minor spot of paint loss on the upper right corner but otherwise the paint layers are well-preserved and in stable condition. The colour of the actual painting is more yellow-toned and brighter and in reality than in the catalogue illustration.
