Condition

This diptych of Cibachrome prints is in generally excellent condition. The colors remain vibrant and saturated, with no apparent fading. As is often the case with front-mounted works, the following are visible on both panels when examining the work closely: superficial surface scratches and scuffs; fingerprints; and soiling. The acrylic front-mount is rubbed along the edges where it has been in contact with the frame. The lower panel has a chip to the acrylic surface at the upper right edge, which is not visible when the work is framed.

Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion.
