CONDITION
Observed in frame, the work is in overall good condition. The canvas is strip-lined. Limited cracks, such as along the top center and along the right edge, faintly visible along close inspection. Small chips, no larger than 5 mm in diameter, largely scattered around the perimeter, with one in the central green leaf. Inspection under UV light shows retouching to those areas of losses.
framed dimensions: 87 x 64 cm (34 1/4 x 25 1/4 in.)
