Condition
Unlined canvas; there appears to be a few areas of extremely faint craquelure; a few light abrasions in lower left edge as well as a slight indention with abrasion near far right figure's feet; under UV exam, there appears to be possible inpainting along extreme edges; however, a discolored varnish layer makes this painting difficult to read.
