Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The two canvases are joined on the reverse and are well intact. There is some very minor wear at the extreme turning corners and evidence of a faint surface abrasion in the lower center quadrant of the bottom black canvas. The uneven surface texture is inherent to the artist's working method. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.
