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 lot was last examined by a Specialist in December 2017. The condition report published at that time is included below. Please contact the department for further information: ajk@christies.com.

Two small losses of paint and two faint hairline cracks, one with associated lifting, are to the upper right corner in a red passage, and a minute loss is to the center upper edge in a red passage.
