Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There are nuances in the tonality of the paint which appear inherent to the artist's working method. There is a ¼ inch abrasion located 16 inches from the left edge and 1/8 inch from the bottom edge. There are two 2 inches rubs located 6 inches from the left edge and 3 inches from the top edge. There are also two very faint impression lines as follows: the first is a 7 inch line located 6 inches from the bottom edge and 29 inches from the left edge, the second is a 2 ½ inch line located 13 inches from the bottom edge and 28 inches from the left edge. Scattered areas in the green passage of paint fluoresce brightly under ultra violet light, but are not visible under normal light conditions and do not appear to be restoration. Unframed.
