Condition Report:
This work was examined framed. The canvas is unlined, the edges are taped and inspection under UV light reveals no obvious signs of retouching. There are a few very fine lines of craquelure to some of the black ink, only visible upon extremely close inspection. There is some very light historic frame abrasion to the extreme edges. This work is in overall very good condition.
