Condition

The medium is oil on canvas, not lined, in very good overall condition. The work retains thick impasto. There is some faint paint separation in the central green area. Under UV light, many different areas fluoresce, most likely in keeping with the pigments used. The colors are fresh and strong and the work presents very well.
