Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light handling along the edges of the canvas, which is only visible under close inspection. There is an area of surface irregularity and paint craquelure at the bottom edge of the canvas approximately 30 inches from the lower left corner, which appears inherent to the working method of the artist. Under ultraviolet let inspection there is no evidence of restoration. Framed.
