Condition
These works are in excellent condition overall. The canvases are each unlined. There is evidence of very minor wear to the extreme edges and a few very unobtrusive pinpoint scuffs to the turning edges. The thick impastoed areas are stable and intact. The irregular surface texture and pigment application is consistent with the artist’s working method and choice of medium. Under very close inspection, there are a few very minor unobtrusive areas of pinpoint losses to the impasto peaks. Unframed.
