Condition Report:
The work has been examined framed. The canvas is lined and the edges are taped. Inspection under UV light reveals what appears to be some historic retouching to the extreme upper right corner. There is a numerical inscription that does not appear to be in the artist's hand. There are a few tiny surface accretions in places and two tiny fly spots to the head in the lower right corner. This work is in overall very good condition.

Catalogue Note:
Please note that this work is a fragment of a larger composition. Veuillez noter que cette œuvre est un fragment d'une composition plus grande.
