Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light where in handling along the edges. There is a small 1/2 inch slight dent on the right side edge near the upper right corner. Under UV light inspection, the edges of the lower half fluoresce darkly as well as multiple spots, almost in a mottled effect. However, these do not appear to be retouches and appear inherent to the artist's technique. There is also a faint long diagonal line extending out of the lower left corner which also fluoresces under UV light. Unframed.
