Cette œuvre est vendue encadrée. L'œuvre est montée sur un support cartonné. Tous les éléments semblent être présents. La structure de l’œuvre est en bonne condition. La surface est très légèrement poussiéreuse. Quelques craquelures de séchage, pour certaines associées à des manques de matière, sont visibles dans les parties jaunes. Quelques manques de matière sont visibles le long des bords. Quelques très légères traces de frottement et de manipulation sont visibles par endroits sur la surface. Les irrégularités de surface, telles que les traces de pliure, les légères traces de frottement sur le papier de verre, les petits enfoncements et les déchirures des allumettes, sont inhérentes à la méthode de travail de l'artiste. Quelques petits points d'accrétion sont visibles par endroits sur la surface. Deux petits trous sont visibles au dos de l'œuvre. Sous réserve de ce qui précède, selon notre opinion, l’œuvre est en bon état général.
This work is sold framed. The work is mounted on a cardboard support. All elements appear to be present. The work is structurally sound. The surface is very slightly dusty. A few drying cracks, for some associated to paint losses, are visible to the yellow parts. A few paint losses are visible along the edges. Minor rubbing and handling marks are visible in places to the surface. The irregularities to the surface, such as the folding marks, minor rubbing to the sandpaper, small dents and tears of the matches, are inherent to the artist's working method. A few small pinpoint accretions are visible in places to the surface. Two small holes are visible on the reverse of the work. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in overall good condition.
