Frame rubbing to the extreme edges. Artist pinholes to the corners, as well as two additional artist pinholes along the upper edge. Areas of craquelure appear throughout the composition. Vertical stretcher bar pressure visibly bisects the center of the composition. Small spots of surface dirt here and there. Examination under Ultra-Violet light reveals: a small spot of retouching to the upper left corner as well as small strokes of retouching to the edges. Subject to the foregoing, it is in our opinion that the work appears to be in good condition.
