Condition
The work is in generally very good condition. There are 2 minor spots of paint cracks resulting in minor lifting. The first crack measures approx. 1.5 cm and is 64 cm from the bottom and 85 cm from the left edge. The 2nd crack is also approx. 1.5 cm and is 61 cm from the bottom and 94 cm. from the left edge. The canvas is slack and can benefit from restreching. Otherwise there are no apparent condition problems with this work.
