Tamara de Lempicka

The canvas is unlined. The pigments are bright and very well preserved. Minor hairline craquelure in places, most notable along the right edge. Two pinholes with associated losses to the upper left and lower left corners as well as the upper right edge due to the framing process. The canvas is gently undulating. One further minor loss to the pigment at the center of the right edge. Under UV light: some original pigments fluoresce but no inpainting is apparent. This work is in overall very good condition.
