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 canvas, stretcher and attachments appear to be in generally good condition. The fabric collage element adheres well to its underlying support. There are small areas of yellowing varnish in places. There are areas of very fine craquelure in places, most predominantly to the centre left with associated pinpoint paint loss. When examined under ultraviolet light, there is no indication of any inpainting. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
