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, stretchers and attachments appear to be in generally good condition. There is a minor canvas draw to the upper left corner. There is minute rubbing in places to the extreme edges. There are a few drying cracks in places to the black spots. There is minor packing residue to the extreme left lower centre vertical edge. There are a few handling marks in places most notably to the upper left corner. There are a few minor paint losses in places to the edges, most notably to the lower right corner. There is a superficial hairline abrasion to the lower left quadrant, to the red passage. When examined under ultraviolet light there appears to be evidence of no retouching. Subject to the foregoing, it our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
