Condition
The canvas has been strip-lined and put on a new keyed wooden stretcher. The surface is dirty and there are stable cracks to the areas of impasto throughout. There are frame abrasions with some associated paint loss to all edges, in particular to the centre of the bottom edge. The canvas is visible in places as intended by the artist. Inspection under UV light reveals some very minor scattered retouching. Held in a simple wooden frame. Unexamined out of frame.
