Condition

This painting is in good condition overall, as is the canvas, which is clear and taut. Paint layers are well-preserved and in sound condition. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals evidence of aged minor retouching along the corners and margins. The colors are more vivid and more saturated in reality and the white in the skirt and the umbrella is whiter and more creamy than the catalogue illustration. Framed.
