Condition

The work is in very good condition overall. The canvas is unlined. There is a 2-cm loss in the red pigment of the lower right quadrant. There is a pindot loss in the red pigment of the upper right quadrant toward the right edge. There are a couple other pindot losses scattered throughout, likely inherent to the artist's working process. The medium is bright and fresh. Under UV inspection, no inpainting is apparent.
