The relined canvas in overall very good condition. Examination under UV light reveals minor, localized inpainting corresponding to old losses. For example, see on the far right woman's face and collar, as well as at center right, on her waist. The main, red-hair, figure displays the same inpainted dots on her face, neck, chest, arms, parts of her dress (her box and around): all very small, unobtrusive and localized. Minor inpainting also visible at the bottom of the right outer edge, and in the center of the top outer edge. See Specialist's pictures.
