Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is slightly lighter in the original work. The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined. The lower left corner has been left unpainted and some wear marks are visible along the rim on the lower left corner. Three dents on the stretcher along the upper edge are visible under close inspection. A small tear (approx. 2 cm) located 34 cm from the lower edge and 42 cm from the left edge is visible under close inspection. A small scratch located 24 cm from the left edge and 36 cm from the lower edge is visible under very close inspection. This work is in good condition.
