Condition
This work appears to be in generally good overall condition. There are some trimmings missing lower right and towards the centre. There are some traces of scattered soiling due to the artist's media. There are two little integrations towards the lower left corner and towards the centre of the right margin.

Catalogue Note
Tappezzieri o pittori: bisogna scegliere. Pittori di una divisione sempre nuova ed irripetibile, per i quali la tela è ogni volta la scena mutevole di una imprevedibile "commedia dell'Arte". Noi affermiamo l'irripetibilità dell'opera d'arte: e che l'essenza della stessa si ponga come presenza modificante in un modo che non necessita più di rappresentazioni celebrative ma di presenza.
