Condition

This work is in fair condition overall. The canvas is unlined. There is evidence of craquelure to the pigment throughout.

There is an abrasion to the canvas in the lower center with associated losses to the pigment. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there are a few scattered, small areas which fluoresce darkly and appear to be the result of restoration. Framed under Plexiglas.
