Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration. The canvas is laid down along the edges and mounted on a stretcher. Inherent to the artsit technique, light staple marks along the lower edge are visible in the catalogue illustration. Pinhead sized holes inherent to the artist's technique are visible along the left and right edges. A minor fold located on the lower left corner due to an irregularity in the laid down process and a pinhead sized paint loss located near the left edge are visible under close inspection. This work is in good overall condition.
