Condition
Scattered flecks of paint loss are present throughout the work, specifically along the top edge. The canvas is unlined and well-stretched. Under ultraviolet inspection, areas of fluorescing occur in the shadow of the chair but this may be a result of the pigment used by the artist. Overall, this work is in very good condition.
