Condition

Condition: This work is in very good condition. 3 round and very faint water stains to the right side of the painting, inherent to the artist choice of medium and working process. No signs of restoration under the UV light. Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are accurate, with the overall tonality being softer in the original work. The illustration fails to convey the metallic feel of the background spray paint.
