The work consists of a number of sections of wood that have been adhered together and adhered to a backboard and then painted, and are held in an integral Artist's wooden painted frame. There are one or two instances of sections bowing so that the joint is slightly separating but all elements otherwise appear intact, adhered and stable. There are a small number of nicks and very minor losses to protruding corners and edges, possibly in keeping with the nature of production. There is surface dirt and detritus, most visible to the horizontal white surfaces. Subject to the above, the work appears in very good overall condition. The work is held behind glass in an integral Artist's painted wooden frame. Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
