Condition
This work on canvas is stable, but there are waves to the canvas and a long arc shaped line of cracks in
the lower center. This is a work that may benefit from lining to even out the surface. The work has been
over varnished. No retouches are visible under ultraviolet light, and it is doubtful that there is any
significant paint loss. (This condition report has been provided courtesy of Simon Parkes Art Conservation, Inc.)
