Condition

Original canvas, there are pin holes visible in all four corners. There is minor surface dirt and matter, with craquelure to an isolated small spot to the centre of the composition, as the result of a small, slight pressure mark. There is minor flattening to one of two of the raised tips of thicker impasto, but this excepting the work appears to be in good overall condition. Ultraviolet light reveals areas of fluorescence which appear in keeping with the nature of the materials, and does not suggest retouchings. Housed in a thick wooden frame. Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
