Condition
Oil on linen-finish paper laid down on the artist's board. There do not appear to be any signs of retouching visible under UV light examination. There are some tiny scattered fly spots. There is some rubbing to the edges, maybe due to framing and a tiny loss of pigment to the lower right corner, to the centre of the upper edge and towards the upper right corner. There are some fine lines of craquelure towards the lower right corner and along the lower edge. Overall this work is in good condition.
