Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration. The work is executed on its original canvas and is mounted on a stretcher with extension strips. The edges and corners present faint wears, one more visible on the upper left corner. Under Ultra Violet light inspection, small areas of restoration fluoresce along the edges, mainly in the corners. This work is in very good condition.
