Some light surface dirt. Stretcher shadow. Canvas quite loose on the stretcher. Areas of medium/large sized craquelure throughout the teal background. Sporadic small areas of re touching, in particular to the upper left corner and a small area to the centre of the painting, an area lower left corner and one centre of bottom edge. Any other areas that appear incongruous do not fluoresce under uv and appear to be period. Patches to the reverse appear to be caused by a reaction with the oil paint?
