Condition
This work is in good condition. The canvas has been cut and laid down onto another canvas. The surface is dirty and may benefit from a clean. The extreme right edge of the canvas is slightly buckled which is not visible when framed. Under UV light: there are some very minor strokes of inpainting along the left, right and lower edges of the canvas, presumably to address old frame abrasion. Otherwise, fine.
