Condition

The canvas is not lined. There is a thick layer of varnish through which the UV light cannot fully penetrate but there does appear to be a small spot of retouching to the upper right corner and a tiny speck to the centre of the upper edge. Otherwise, this work is in overall good condition. Colours: Overall fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, though slightly less pink in the original.
