Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is minor evidence of wear and handling to the edges. In the lower right quadrant there is a 9 in. horizontal canvas line visible under close inspection, inherent to the weave of the canvas. There is evidence of abrasions on the left side. Under Ultraviolet inspection, the left edge of the canvas fluoresces darkly but is not the result of restoration. Unframed.

"To me, the visible and tangible world is more a thing of remembrance than of perceptions of reality. The present is saturated with the past as a live sponge is saturated with water: through the workings of memory, light comes from the past and illuminates, snatches out of the dark that which is not of this moment. That light is the very essence of remembrance...The deeper one delves into the past, the more powerful the stream of light. And somewhere over there, beyond the boundaries of the discernible, it turns into a river of golden light. In that river my life drowns, and everything that was before lives."
