Condition
This work is in good overall condition. In the lower 10 inches of the painting, in the green passages of paint, the green color appears to have spot areas of faint pigment discoloration. There are scattered accretions, most notably located: a 1/8 inch accretion located 17 inches from the right edge and 17 ¼ inches from the top edge; a ½ drip accretion located 17 inches from the right edge and 24 ½ inches from the bottom edge; an 1/8 inch spot accretion located 22 ½ inches from the right edge and 9 ¾ inches from the bottom edge and 2 pinpoint spot accretions located 21 inches from the left edge and 2 ½ inches from the top edge. Under ultra violet light inspection the latter accretion fluoresces but there is no evidence of inpainting. Framed.
