Condition

Canvas is not lined. Colors are strong and the surface retains a lovely texture. Under UV light some pigments in the figure's skin fluoresce but appear to be original. A few small areas of retouching are visible in the woman's hair to her left, again in her hair above her left eye, and in the lowest cloud at extreme left horizon edge, otherwise fine. This work is generally in very good condition.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report.
