This work is in good overall condition as viewed. Evidence of light wear along the edges of the work due to abrasions with the frame, but this is covered by the frame itself and does not affect the overall image. Under bright light, evidence of craquelure at the upper corners of the work, but this is stable and consistent with the ag of the work. All other inconsistencies are inherent to the artist's working method. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals scattered spots of restoration primarily at the lower left quadrant, at the ground under the left figure. Framed. Framed Dimensions: 66 by 66 cm; 25 1/2 by 25 1/2 in.
