Georges Csato

Brian Sinfield Gallery, Burford, where acquired by the present owner, 2nd February 2011

Unexamined out of frame. The sheet does not appear fully laid down, but is adhered to a backing board in at least the central belt. The sheet is very slightly bowed, and there appears a slight instance of lifting to a white component of the collage in the bottom left hand corner, with further instances appearing elsewhere. There is further, very minor traces of glue residue, but this excepting the work appears in very good overall condition. Housed behind glass in a thin black and painted wooden frame, float-mounted against a white backing mount. Unexamined out of frame.
