Anselm Reyle

Acquired directly from the artist by the previous owner

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the reflective nature of the foil in the original is not fully captured in the catalogue illustration. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are a few minute dust fibres adhering to the foil's surface in places. A few tiny indentations are visible to the foil upon very close inspection, all of which are inherent to the artist's choice of media and working process. Some very slight canvas draw is visible upon close inspection to the top and lower left corners. There is a very faint and unobtrusive diagonal rub mark to the lower right extreme edge. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
