Condition

The colors are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is less constrated in the original work. Under UV light inspection, few minor scattered points of retouching are visible. The pictorial surface is very fragile in the upper left quadrant Cracks are visible especially in the darker-blue impastos.
