Condition

Please note that the work is stretched and framed and the canvas is unlined. Upon close inspection there appears to be some very minor warping of the canvas. There is some very minor cracking, only visible upon close inspection, to some of the dark brown details of the work, particularly to the tree and to the skirt of the central figure and the left arm of the left hand figure. There also appears to be a very minor scratch visible to the dark brown pigment within the upper right hand quadrant of the work. Upon close inspection, there is some minor surface loss to the upper right hand side of the framing edge where the canvas meets the frame. Overall, the work appears to be in good condition. Inpection under UV light shows no sign of restoration or repair. Please note that this work has not been examined outside of its frame.
