Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. All of the elements are stable and well intact. The surface variations and loose canvas elements are inherent to the artist’s chosen medium and working method. Under close inspection, there is some oxidation to the hardware, surface dust, light surface soiling, and scattered minor pigment separation noted.
