Condition

Original canvas. Unlined. Appears sound. Minor buckling to the canvas in places. There are areas throughout where the pieces of paper that have been collaged to the canvas are beginning to lift, crack or flake slightly. Please note there are areas towards the centre of the work where it looks like said paper has been ripped off, exposing the canvas beneath. The largest area measuring approximately 40mm wide and 40mm high. This is treatment of the canvas is inline with the artist's practice and thus probably inherent to the work.
