Condition

The work appears to be in excellent original condition, the paint surface sound and stable throughout. Some yellow splash marks in the upper left hand corner do not appear to be part of the original work and the work would undoubtedly benefit from a professional clean to remove these and brighten the surface. Presented 'floated' within the original grey painted wooden box frame. The frame has suffered some minor wear but is entirely sound structurally.
