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.

This watercolor and ink on paper is in good condition overall. The paper does not present tears or paper losses. It presents some mild planar distortions at the edges. The verso perimeter edges have a residual adhesive from a previous tape which has been removed. Visually, the paper is mildly oxidized from contact with acidic material and a natural process of aging due to light exposure. There is a moderate mat stain from an acidic top mat as well as water tide marks and discoloration as a result of the adhesive removal from the verso four edges. In addition there is a water tide mark at the right center edge 9" down from the top edge and 2 3/4" long. Otherwise, the media appears to be well preserved.
