Glynn Williams

Bernard Jacobson Gallery, London, where acquired by David Bowie, 4th October 1994

The sculpture appears sound. The right front corner of the table cloth has been repaired, and there is a further repair to the lower right edge of the table cloth, which are thought to be in keeping with the artist's working technique. In places there are areas of uneveness to the stone, which appear to be in keeping with the Artist's materials. There is some lifting and loss to the painted areas in places. There are one or two minor losses to the stone at the lower edges of the base. There is some light surface dirt to the work most apparent to the crevices. Subject to the above the work is in very good overall condition. Freestanding. Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
