Paint surface stable with no signs of lifting. No craquelure apparent. Under black light examination, older and newer in-painting detected. Specifically, old in-painting can be seen in central left margin, consistent with frame rubbing. Additional older in-painting along right side of right-most figure. Finally, older in-painting can be seen just under the raised arm of the right-most figure, concealing a small puncture to the canvas (visible from verso). Newer in-painting present on all skin-surfaces of figures, as well as what appears to be a small spattering (apparently inadvertent) to the left of the raised arm of the right-most figure. Verso shows additional puncture to canvas not visible from recto in lower right quadrant. Verso with additional patch in lower center.
