Condition
The canvas is not lined. There is an uneven milky varnish preventing UV light from fully penetrating, however there appears to be no signs of retouching under UV light. There are a few flecks of paint loss along the left edge. There are scattered fly spots towards the center of the lower edge and at the center of the upper edge. There is some slight undulation on the canvas on the lower right quadrant only visible under racking light. This work is in very good condition.
