Condition
The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue, although the overall tonality is brighter in the original.
Few minor dark scattered stains due to the artist process are visible under close inspection.
A minor tear (approximately 1 cm), likely due to a previous hanging with pin is located on the upper right corner.
This work is in excellent condition.

Catalogue Note
" L'analyse de la peinture s'est faite essentiellement suivant des bases visuelles et raisonnées, nous la voudrions également topologique, corporelle et mémorielle, situant et avouant ses origines, essayant de les définir et de les comprendre, et prenant dans le réservoir des ressources humaines tout ce qui est vital et positif."
