Condition
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Some paint-loss across the left edge, the lower right edge and lower central edges of the board, most probably due to the framing. Six pinhole sized nail holes visible upon closer inspection, most probably due to previous framing. No signs of restoration under UV light.
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are accurate, with the overall hues being slightly softer in the original painting.
