Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonaloty is slightly deeper in the original work. The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined. There is some very slight undulation to the upper left corner. Under Ultra Violet light inspection, two small areas of restoration fluoresce, one along the right edge at the center, and the other on the lower half of the work, at the center. This work is in very good condition.
