Further and more visible craquelure to the extreme left edge of the canvas where it's folded over the stretcher bar and associated paint loss.

To the left margin, the paint loss measures approx. 1 x 1cm and there is also an area of flaking paint too approx. 0.5 x 0.5cm. The rest of the impasto appears intact.
