Condition
The catalogue illustration does not accurately convey the red strokes on the work, which are deeper and more visible, especially the one on the left which does not really appear, nor the rich texture of the work.
The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined.
Under Ultra Violet light inspection there is no evidence of restoration. Aside from a very faint wear to the extremity of the lower left corner, this work is in very good condition.
