JONAS WOOD | BW Parrot Pattern

This work is in very good condition overall. Under close inspection, there is light evidence of handling and wear to the extreme top edge, most notably, three ¼ of an inch horizontal abrasions to the pigment, are visible at the center of the top extreme edge, as well as two similarly sized rub marks 9 inches from the top right corner a the extreme top edge. Under extremely close inspection there are a few light areas of rubbing visible on the extreme left edge, beginning 22 inches from the bottom left edge and extending to 30 inches from the bottom left edge. Under further extremely close inspection and raking light, there is a soft 1 1/2 of an inch scratch to the pigment on the extreme bottom edge visible 10 inches from the bottom right corner. Further close inspection reveals a pinpoint brown spot accretion at the very extreme of the upper right corner. Under ultraviolet light inspection, the spot accretion fluoresces brightly but is the not the result of restoration. Unframed.
