Condition

This work is in very good condition. The canvas has not been lined. There are some extremely minor lines of hairline craquelure, minor paint shrinkage in the white pigments in the ribbon in the figure's hair. Under UV light: some original pigments fluoresce but there are no apparent signs of inpainting.
