Condition report
Relined.
Some craquelure visible.
Horizontal lines top and bottom and vertical lines to either side, which indicate the canvas may have been extended by the artist.

A vertical line can be seen on the left side under uv light, probably where the canvas has been extended. An opaque varnish prevents any further reading under uv light.
Overall appears in generally good presentable condition.
