Totalübermalung Rot (Zumalung)

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.

The work is structurally sound. There is some wear, with some associated minor losses to the extreme edges and corners, most notably to the lower edge and coners. There is some minor rubbing visible to the impasto. There is some soft surface soiling. There are some very soft hairline drying craquelures visible. When examined under ultraviolet light, there is a spot of circa 1 cm. visible along the lower right horizontal edge, presumably an inpainting. Examined under UV light there are also traces of scratches, coherent with the artist's working process. It is our opinion that the work is in good condition.
