Condition
This work is in good condition. There are areas of minor and stable drying cracks mostly noticeable in the black painted areas. There is evidence of pin-point spots of brown accretions along the lower edge. Under ultra-violet light there is evidence of very faint vertical drips that fluoresce but do not relate to any inpainting, extending from the third central abstraction at the right lower edge. Framed in a wood frame.
