Condition

The canvas is lined. Examination under UV light reveals a layer of varnish preventing the light from fully penetrating. However, UV examination reveals areas of inpainting to the shrinkage to the mask and surrounding area to the left of the composition; the brown rectangle to the centre of the composition as well as to the dark bar to the top of the right mask. There are further small spots of inpainting to the lower left and to the centre of the composition. There is evidence of shrinkage predominantly to the left of the composition. There is some frame rubbing to all four edges with some minor associated paint losses. This work is in overall good condition.
