Condition

This work is in very good condition. There is evidence of light wear and handling to the vertical and lower edges. Very close inspection reveals a pinprick-sized media accretion towards the centre of the lower left quadrant. There are a few rubs towards the lower right corner with associated specks of paint loss. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
