Condition
This work is in excellent condition overall. The canvas is unlined. The irregular pigment application is consistent with the artist's choice of medium and working method. Under close inspection, there is evidence of very minor wear and handling along the turning edges and corners. Only visible under very close inspection, there are a few pinpoint losses to the pigment. Unframed.
