Condition
This work is in good overall condition as viewed. There are two minor spots of paint loss, one at the girl's leg and one at the upper right corner of the work. There are small media accretions at the upper right corner, but these are inherent to the artist's working method. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals no sign of restoration as viewed. Framed.
