Condition

This work is in good condition overall. The canvas is unlined. There are 2 vertical seams in the canvas and 2 horizontal seams on the far left. There is some light scattered surface soiling and faint accretions. There is variation to the varnish throughout, likely due to the artistÂ’s working method. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there are various areas that fluoresce darkly, which may indicate minor areas of inpainting. Unframed.
