Condition

This work appears in very good condition overall. The staining visible in the catalogue illustration is inherent to the artist's working method. There are scattered but unobtrusive spot accretions throughout the canvas and a few consistent intermittent vertical lines which appear inherent to the weave of the canvas. Under ultraviolet light, there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.
