Frank Gehry

Overall in very good condition. The sculptural fish element is executed from torn pieces of Formica which present with textural irregularities inherent to production. The edges illuminate at different opacities, which adds great depth to the sculpture when lit. The fish presents with a few scattered surface scratches and minor surface soiling concentrated to the recessed areas of the design. The glass eyeballs are in excellent condition. The lacquered plywood stand presents with scattered surface scratches, minor abrasions and minute chips concentrated to the corners of the base and not visually distracting. Sotheby's does not guarantee electrical components and suggests having all wiring inspected by a licensed electrician.
