Condition

The painting sits on its original canvas, which warps slitghly. The canvas is slightly detached from the stretcher on the right. A few chips and wears appear on the lower border and the upper right. Some parts have been left in reserve (visible in the catalogue). A small chip is missing in the lower part in the middle of the composition, and a very light piece of paper adheres to the composition in the same areas (which would come off easily). Very good condition overall.
