Condition

This work is in very good condition. This work was examined with the frame on. There is scattered hairline craquelure on the area across the figure's left shoulder to the upper arm, with small dots of paint loss, notably along the top right corner and on the figure's right hand, but only visible upon very close inspection. There are also light scratches and a slight abrasion along the bottom left edge, but not intrusive to the image.
