Condition
The canvas has not been lined. There is a slight undulation to the canvas, most notably to the lower left quadrant. Some minor frame abrasion to the center of the right edge, the lower left edge and corner, and the upper right corner. There is some pooling varnish along the right edge. Under UV light: there are some strokes of inpainting to the upper edge, a larger area of inpainting along the right edge, some fine strokes to the lower and right edges. Some other original pigments fluoresce, but a discolored varnish makes it difficult to read through.
