Description

  • Sandra Blow
  • Untitled
signed, dated '72' and inscribed on the canvas overlapoil and textile collage on canvas

Condition

The canvas is original. All elements of the collage appear securely adhered, with some minor rounding to the edges of the vertical element to the right. There is some minor abrasion to the extreme corners and the extreme edges in places with one or two instances of associated minor paint loss, due to the work being unframed. There is a very small dent to the lower right corner. There are a small number of light scuffs to the work, including towards the right edge at centre and in the lower left quadrant. There are instances of studio matter and detritus, particularly visible towards the upper right corner, and a small number of minor accretions in places, with surface dirt throughout. Inspection under ultraviolet reveals no obvious signs of retouching. The work is unframed. Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
