Condition Report:
This work is in good condition overall. There is evidence of wear and handling to the edges and corners with associated hairline craquelure at the pull margins. Under close inspection, there is a minute loss near the lower edge two inches from the lower right corner and a brown drip accretion along the upper edge one inch from the upper left corner. Under further close inspection and raking light, scattered areas on the surface appear to have a slightly different sheen. The canvas has been varnished and strip-lined. Under ultraviolet light inspection, the aforementioned areas with a slightly different sheen fluorescence darkly and appear to have benefited from retouching. Framed.

Framed dimensions: 6 3/8 by 6 3/8 in. (16.2 by 16.2 cm.)
