Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There are surface texture and pigment variations throughout, consistent to the artist's choice of medium and working method. There is evidence of light wear and handling to the corners and turning edges. There is a 2 inch surface accretion to the lower right and a 1 inch surface accretion at the top right corner. There are very minor scattered pinpoint abrasions possibly due to the artist's choice of medium. Under Ultraviolet light inspection there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.
