Condition

This work is ready to hang and is in very good condition. The paint layer is stable overall. Minor rubbing is present to the extreme corners. Four faint accretions, each measuring approximately one-quarter of an inch in length, are present in the upper left quadrant (near left corner) and in the lower center quadrant (near the bottom corner). Very minor/slight lifting of paint is apparent in the upper corner; however, this area appears stable. One minor speck of paint-loss measuring one-eighth of an inch in length is present on the extreme upper left edge. Under ultraviolet inspection, three small accretions become apparent in the lower right quadrant.
