This work is in good condition overall. There is evidence of wear and handling to the artist's frame. Along the frame, there are cracks along the left side toward the bottom, at the bottom toward the center, along the right side toward the top, and at the top center, all of which appear inherent to the original condition of the frame as they are at regular intervals. At the top left corner of frame where the wood panels join, the break is somewhat uneven. Dust has accumulated in the crevices of the artist's frame. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Framed in an artist's frame.
