Condition
Canvas is lined. There are lines of craquelure visible throughout, particularly along the right edge and a few scattered surface scuffs. Surface appears slightly dirty overall. Under UV, there are scattered lines of inpainting along the right edge to address aforementioned craquelure. There are several pindot retouches along the left edge, a few small strokes at the center of the composition, a 5 inch vertical line of retouching just below the center and five small areas of retouching through the center of the lower right quadrant. The work is in generally good condition.
