There is a very light trace of dirt along the upper left margin. There is a light impression on the upper right part of the stretcher. There are stable and spidery craquelures scattered on the surface. No traces of retouching appear to be visible under UV light.

Catalogue Note
"Scheggi cerca una forza interna che animi la sua sovrapposizione di piani di uno stesso colore e la raggiunge (...). Fra le superfici di Scheggi si anima una condizione plastica di indubbia trascendenza, già libera da riferimenti estranei a quel rigore spirituale cui aspira".
"Scheggi is looking for an inner strength to animate his overlapping of planes of the same colours and he manages it (...). A plastic condition of certain trascendence comes to life among Scheggi's surfaces, already free from outside reference to obtain that spiritual rigour he aspiring towards".
