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. There is tape along the turnover edges. There are some minor tension cracks to the upper horizontal and right vertical turnover edges. There are some minor hairline cracks in the darker red passage left of centre and in the red passage in the lower right corner, the latter with associated pinpoint paint losses. When examined under ultraviolet light, there is no evidence of any retouching. Subject to our foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
