Condition

The colors are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is more subdued in the original work. The image does not convey the varnish brightness. Under very close inspection, three minor paint losses are visible in the lower edge : - one located at 25 cm from the left edge, - one located at 29 cm from the left edge, - one located at 8 cm from the left edge. Under UV light inspection, few points fluoresce due to the artist process. This work is in very good condition.
