The sculpture is in good condition. The white painted frame is stable and has been recently painted. All of the hanging bars are accounted for. The pinstriped panel exhibits minor scuffs and faint scratches from the bars coming in contact with the surface, which is typical of the artist's work. Minor inpainting was noted on the black pinstripes. The top of the white frame exhibits minor surface soiling. The artwork is structurally sound.
