Condition

This work is in good condition overall. Wear of four corners and edges with very minor tears of the canvas is observed which is consistent with the age of the work. Visible upon close examination, a small scratch measured 2.5 cm long is found, located 24 cm from the top and 5 cm from the right edge. No evidence of retouching is observed when examined under ultraviolet light.
