Condition
Painted on a thick burlap canvas which has been lined. There does not appear to be evidence of retouching visible under UV light. There are some scattered small paint losses in places, the most prominent of which is an area towards the centre of the left edge. There are some very fine lines of craquelure in places, mainly to the thicker white pigments. This work is in good condition.
