Condition
Please note that the correct measurements for this lot are: 44 1/4 by 60 in. (112.3 by 152.4 cm). Please also note that the item is dated to 1981 and has a certificate of authenticity by Germana Matta, dated Aprile 1982.
There are some nicks to the wood on some of the edges of the relief—they are painted over so they are very likely inherent to the wood. There is some mottling along the lower left corner. There is also a small stain about 15 in. from the lower left edge. Overall, in very good condition.
