Condition report
A Christie's specialist may contact you to discuss this lot or to notify you if the condition changes prior to the sale.
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 has not been examined unframed. The canvas is slightly slack, and canvas draw is to the left corners. Minor wear and hairline tension cracking are to the corner tips and turning edges, and tiny associated losses are infrequent. Fine drying cracks are occasionally to the teal and white painted passages. A few spots of stray media are to the upper and lower left edge. Visible under ultraviolet light, a few tiny drip accretions are scattered, and there is no apparent inpainting.
