Condition

This work is in very good condition. The paint surface is remarkably sound for the thick application of paint and the colors are vibrant. There are scattered tiny losses to some of the tips of the heavy impastoed paint. The thick textured surface has collected dust in some areas. Under Ultraviolet light there are no apparent restorations. This work is frame in an open Plexiglas box frame.
