Condition Report
Canvas is in plane and holds good tension. There are three very minor accretions localised to the upper left quadrant, possibly the result of fly activity. The reverse shows a small repair to the canvas, but this is not visible from the front. The paint layers appears stable and in good overall order. Under UV a small area of inpainting is visible in the lower right corner. Otherwise in very nice overall condition. See additional images.
