Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalgoue illustration are accurate.
Condition:
This work is in good condition overall. There is evidence of light wear and handling along the edges including hairline craquelure at the pull margins and a few pinpoint spots of loss at the lower two corners, upper left corner and along the right edge towards the top. The canvas is buckling slightly in each corner. Under close inspection, a pinpoint accretion is visible in the lower left corner. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, two pinpoint round drip accretions fluoresce lightly in the lower third of the canvas but do not appear to be the result of restoration.
