Condition

The canvas is unlined and loosely stretching. Slight buckling is visible in the upper quadrants. Frame abrasion is present along all four-edges. Under ultraviolet inspection, fluorescing occurs but this is more than likely inherent to the pigment used by the artist. Overall, this work is in very good condition.
