Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is a protruding line at the center of the canvas likely from the way the glue was applied at the time of execution and a pinpoint protrusion at the top edge in the center. The holographic sticker in the top row, third from the left, is lifting slightly from the board. Under close inspection, pinpoint brown accretions, scuffs and minor scratches are scattered throughout, most notably in the central upper right large circle, and there is a small black accretion on the circle closest to the right edge, 6 up from the bottom right corner. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Framed.
