Provenance

Sale, Bonhams Knightsbridge, 17th March 2010, lot 123, where purchased by the present owner

Condition

Not examined out of frame. The sheet is attached to a supporting board. The edges of the sheet are uneven and there is a loss at the lower right corner. This appears to be consistent with the artist's working materials. On extremely close examination it is possible to see a area of paint loss in the dark blue pigment of the lower right quadrant, with several tiny fleck of further paint loss scattered across the composition. These do not detract from the work's aesthetic appeal. There is a light scuff in the lower left quadrant and some light surface dirt and studio detritus. Subject to the above the work appears to be in very good condition. The painting is float mounted in a white box frame. Please contact the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
