Cette œuvre est vendue encadrée. La surface est légèrement encrassée et poussiéreuse. Un petit manque de la toile est visible dans l'angle supérieur droit. Quelques légères traces de pliure sont visibles dans les angles. Présence de trous de punaise et d'agrafeuse de l'artiste par endroits le long des bords. Présence de trois légères et fines déchirures de la toile dans la marge blanche à gauche, probablement dues à un ancien montage. Présence de légères traces de manipulation et frottement par endroits dans la marge blanche en périphérie de l'œuvre. Deux empâtements dans la composition sont très légèrement applatis. Présence de quelques petites accrétions par endroits sur la surface. Examinée à la lumière UV: pas de repeint apparent. Sous réserve de ce qui précède, selon notre opinion, l’œuvre est en bon état général de conservation.
This work is sold framed. The surface is slightly dirty and dusty. A small canvas loss is visible to the upper right corner. A few slight folding marks are visible to the corners. There are pin and staple holes by the artist in places along the edges. There are three slight and fine tears of the canvas to the left white margin, probably due to a former mounting. There are slight handling marks and rubbing in places to the white margin in periphery of the work. Two impastos in the composition are very slightly flattened. There are a few small accretions in places to the surface. Examined under UV light: no visible inpainting. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in overall good condition.
