Overall the work is stable, attractive and in good condition, albeit having had work done. The canvas is relined and revarnished. Inpainting, chipping and paint loss to outer edges, likely due to relining and framing. There is crazing to most recent layer of varnish, surface dirt is visible on this layer as well. Evidence of inpainting throughout, possibly to old repairs. Work is titled, signed and dated on proper right side.
