Sotheby's Hong Kong, Monday, 2 April 2012, Lot 320
Condition
The painting is in good condition overall. The canvas is in good condition, except a very slight shallowly concaved area on the lower right quadrant. Upon close inspection, there are some scattered networks of soft craquelures along the surface of the painting, most apparent on the upper left quadrant (white background). There are two minor spots of paint loss on the upper left corner, but the paint layers are otherwise intact and in stable condition. Examination under ultraviolet light shows no evidence of retouching. The colors of the actual painting are brighter and less yellowish. Framed.
