Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light handling and wear along the sides of the canvas, most notably at the turning corners. There are 3 minor accretions, one 7 inches to the right of the bottom left corner, one 2 ½ inches to the right of the left edge and 3 inches above the bottom edge, and one 13 inches from the left edge and 8 1/4 inches from the bottom edge. Under Ultraviolet light the accretions fluoresce brightly, but there is no evidence of restoration. Framed.
