Condition

This work is in excellent condition overall. There are two minor portions along the right and left edges of the work, approximately 7 inches from the top corners, where the underlying canvas is exposed, which appears to be inherent to the artist's intentions. The areas of impasto remain bright and stable. Under ultraviolet light inspection there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.

Catalogue Note

"The sports thing is funny. A lot of people think my work on the subject is based on being a super sports fan, because I'm from Boston or because I make these nostalgic pictures, but really the whole sports theme is just a vehicle for practicing portraiture." Jonas WoodÂ
