Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is some subtle yellowing evident in the resin. There are two areas of very fine, shallow cracking noted at the top at the left and right sides. Upon close inspection there is some minor debris within the resin, due to the artist's working method. There are some very fine scattered surface scratches and some light wear to the edges and corners. The resin element rests on an untreated wooden base that measures 36 ¼ by 11 3/8 by 11 1/8 in. The base is inherently irregular in form and exhibits areas of splintering and some minor splitting. There is some minor wear to the base.
