Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the image does not accurately convey the rich texture of the surface. The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined. There are scattered cracks throughout the surface, mainly located in the thicker impastos, inherent to the artist's technique. There is slight dust in the creases. Under Ultra Violet light inspection there is no evidence of restoration. This work is in very good original condition.
