Condition
Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate.
Condition: This work is in good condition. There are several stable cracks and small losses scattered in places throughout the paint surface of the jacket. There are tiny pinhead size holes to the pasta as well as small areas where the pasta shapes are missing, all of which are inherent to the artist's working process. There is a small area of paint loss to the inner visible section of the jacket, approximately 8cm below the hanger.
