This work is in very good condition overall. There is light evidence of wear and handling along the edges and on the surface. Under close inspection, scattered light surface abrasions, small pinpoint drip accretions and a few scattered pinpoint and unobtrusive media accretions are visible across the surface, inherent to the artist's chosen medium, and a nail-head sized area of cracking in second-from-the-bottom white chevron on the left with two pinpoint spots of loss. Also under close inspection, an Z-shaped irregularity to the paint is visible in the left of the white horizontal divider of chevrons. Under Ultraviolet inspection, the aforementioned irregularity fluoresces and appears to have benefitted from light retouching. Unframed.
