Lot Essay
“The exceptional qualities of crayons include the capacity to add colour in detail, apply layers, create complex contrasts, and allow the medium to take the lead. Therefore, this tool has the effects of forceful change, powerful assertion, and vigorous speed. This new tool, which allows me to express colours directly from my mind, has unique characteristics that distinguish it from mediums such as pastel, oil paint, gouache, watercolour, or monochrome.” Wu Dayu

Condition report
A Christie's specialist may contact you to discuss this lot or to notify you if the condition changes prior to the sale.
The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
It is in our opinion that the works are in overall good condition. The works were inspected inside the frame. Sides and back of the works cannot be checked due to framing status. Slightly deckled edges. The below condition issues can only be observed under very close inspection. Minor foxing dots scattered very occasionally. Slightly yellowed paper, which is consistent with the age of the artist's choice of medium.
