Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is some very light wear along the edges and at the corners of the canvas. There are scattered areas of soft undulations and creases to the canvas, most notably in the bottom center of the canvas by the horse’s leg, which are inherent to the artist’s choice of medium. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Framed.
