Condition
There are some fly spots and minor accretions on the surface of the canvasboard. Under UV light, a very thin 1cm vertical line of retouching is visible in the white pigment towards the upper left corner. Some tiny horizontal lines also fluoresce in the white pigment near the upper edge. Otherwise this work is in overall very good condition.
