Condition: (UV-checked)
- The painting in general in good and hangable condition.
- Relined, due to a hole in the original canvas (in the middle of the painting), with related overpaint.
- The UV-light shows furthermore mostly the colour of the varnish.
- Some flaking paint, especially in the bottom and top zones.
- In the background on top a large horizontal hairline, most probably because the canvas was folded.
- In the right shoulder a small hole in the canvas.
