Condition

The canvas is not lined. Examination under UV light reveals an area of old retouching in the upper right quadrant with a corresponding patch to the reverse of the canvas (approximately 10 by 15cm.). There are two further lines of retouching running horizontally towards the centre of the right edge. There are fine lines of craquelure in places, notably to the green pigment at the centre of the composition and to the background along the upper edge, some of which appear to have been stabilised. There are minor pin-dot losses to the pigment in the background. This work is in fairly good overall condition.
