Condition
The canvas has been fully laid on board. Ultra-violet light reveals an even layer of residual varnish which makes the surface quite difficult to read. However, there appear to be some very fine lines of strengthening in the hookah and in the dark background in the centre of the composition. This picture is otherwise in good condition and is ready to hang.
Presented in a decorative gilt frame.
