Condition
The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is less bright in the original work.
The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined.
Under close inspection, the edges and surface present some imperfections, intrinsic to the technique and materials.
Under Ultra Violet light inspection, retouchings on the edges fluoresce, probably corresponding to wears of an old frame. Moreover, two areas of restoration located on the lower and upper right quadrants fluoresce.
This work is in very good condition overall.
