Gouache spraying, gouache and feathers (of Gallus Gallus) on tinted paper. The feathers' collage are sound and stable. The reverse of the sheet is attached to the mount at the upper corners. The sheet undulates very slightly. Some pale light staining. The right and lower edges slightly uneven. Some minute glue remnants towards the feathers inherent to the artist’s technique. A few small and stable craquelures in the thickest gouache impastos. Medium is strong and fresh. Subject to the foregoing it is or opinion that this work appears to be in generally very good condition.
Pulvérisation de gouache, gouache et plumes (de Gallus Gallus) sur papier teinté. Le collage des plumes est sain et stable. Le revers de la feuille est maintenu au montage aux bords supérieurs. La feuille ondule très légèrement. Légère insolation de la feuille. Les bords droit et inférieur sont légèrement irréguliers. Quelques minuscules résidus de colle vers les plumes, inhérents à la technique de l’artiste. De rares petites et stables craquelures dans les empâtements les plus épais. Le médium est vif et frais sur l’ensemble de la composition. Sous réserve de ce qui précède et selon notre opinion, cette œuvre apparait en très bonne condition générale.
