拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

Not examined out of frame. The sheet appears to be hinged in places on the reverse to its underlying support. The left vertical edge is uneven. There are a few minor handling marks and creases in places, most notably to the upper horizontal edge, presumably in keeping with the artist's working method. There are a few pinpoint accretions to the lower centre to the yellow passage, presumably occurring in the artist’s studio. There is a tear to the lower right corner, presumably keeping with the artist's working method. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in good condition.
