Gene Davis

This work is in overall good condition.

Tonal variations to the surface including studio splatter and shiny blots consistent with the artist's practice, as well as pilling consistent with the raw canvas media chosen by the artist.

Accretions and abrasions mostly in lower register visible under close inspection.

Dirt splatter isolated in area of lower left quadrant.

Cluster of remnant, minute stray fibers in lower center.

Wear and handling resulting in discoloration at corners.

Under ultraviolet light inspection, a seam in the canvas fluoresces due to the material but is not visible under standard light, and there is no evidence of restoration.
