Condition
This work is in very good condition. There is evidence of light wear and handling to the corners and extreme outer edges. Very close inspection reveals a small number of minute and unobtrusive media accretions and faint drip marks scattered in a few isolated places. Further close inspection reveals two minor indentations towards the centre of the composition which fluoresce when examined under ultraviolet light. Further examination under ultraviolet light reveals two tiny specks in the white pigment which fluoresce darker.
