Condition Report

Unlined. Overall in excellent, original condition with no damages or losses to the paintwork or canvas. Original impasto present as the artist intended, particularly to the hounds. The canvas has good tension and the picture is in plane. The paint layers are in an excellent, stable condition. There are a few localised drying cracks in the darker paint passages.
