Condition:

The painting is in good vintage condition. The surface shows natural age-related craquelure, particularly in areas of thicker paint, which is consistent with its mid-20th century origin. The canvas is stable and the paint layers are well-adhered, with no active flaking or loss. Light surface marks and toning are present, adding to the artwork’s authentic vintage character. Please see photographs for close-up details.
