Condition

The canvas is not lined and there is no evidence of retouching visible under UV light. The upper right quadrant of the canvas is very slightly undulated. There is some light frame abrasion to the extreme edges and some surface dirt in places. This work would probably benefit from a clean. Otherwise, this work is in overall good condition. Colours: Fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, though the whites are brighter in the original.
