斯裡哈迪 蘇達索諾

Private Collection, Germany
Christie's, Hong Kong, April 25, 2004, Lot 570

The work is in good condition overall, as is the canvas, which is clear and taut. There are indications of minor wear and handling around the edges, along with minor soft craquelures, but the paint layers are stable and well preserved. Craquelures are unobtrusive and visible only upon close observation. There is a pin-sized protrusion on the canvas in the cneter of the sky. Examination under ultraviolet light indicates restoration on the lower left quadrant on the black area (line across the painting) located 30 cm from the left and 8 cm from the bottom. The blue colour is brighter in reality than the catalogue illustration. Framed.
