Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light wear and handling to the sides and edges of the canvas. There are scattered accretions believed to be varnish and other media across the surface, which appear to be inherent to the artist's working method. Under ultraviolet light inspection there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.
