Condition

Not examined out of the frame. The board appears sound. The collaged elements are slightly frayed and uneven in places, which is thought to be in keeping with the Artist's materials. The collaged elements also undulate slightly, but otherwise they appear sound and securely attached to the board. There are one or two slight specks of surface dirt, but otherwise the work appears to be in excellent overall condition. Ultraviolet light reveals no obvious signs of fluorescence or retouching. The work is presented in a painted white wooden frame, held under glass. Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
