DAVID SALLE | Melody Bubbles and the Critique of Pure Reason

This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light handling and wear to the edges, most noticeable in the upper left corner. In the inner edges where the multiple canvases are embedded or joined, there are some areas of slightly uneven joints, inherent to the artist's working method and process of assemblage. The various scattered drips and stains are also inherent to the artist's working method. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.
