Work retains original canvas. Under UV examination, a few spots of minor retouch lower left corner. A faint horizontal line of retouch lower center measuring roughly 2 in.

While there is fluorescence to the signature in the lower right corner, we believe the signature, title and inscription on the reverse to be in the artist's hand.

Presented in a worn bronze-colored scoop frame.
