Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The center of the composition is richly textured with thick impasto. There is minor pulling to the canvas located 1 inch from the right edge and 7 inches from the bottom edge, which appears to be inherent to the artist's working method. There is evidence of minor handling and wear along the edges of the canvas. Under ultraviolet light inspection there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.
