Condition

Oil on canvasboard. The picture surface is in generally good condition aside from a thick, drippy, discolored varnish. There are also small scattered areas of impasto along the bottom third of the work. These may be the intention of the artist or may be areas of varnish accumulation. One area in the lower right quadrant has been broken away and the canvasboard is visible. Under UV light, it is very difficult to read the work.
