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 and all elements appear to be present. The metal fastening elements are slightly discoloured, presumably in keeping with the natural ageing process. There is a fine layer of surface dust. There are a few loose fibres and fibrous accretions in places to the edges of the canvas, in keeping with the artist's chosen medium. There are a few creases and drying cracks with a few associated pinpoint paint losses in places, most notably to the areas of folding, presumably in keeping with the artist's working method. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
