Condition

The canvas is original. The canvas is sound. There are one or two very small scattered areas of reticulation to the brown pigment, possible in keeping with the Artist's working methods. Subject to the above, the work appears to be in excellent overall condition. Inspection under UV reveals two areas of fluorescence in the upper left and lower right corners, possibly a result of the artist's materials. The work is float mounted in a simple white wooden frame.
