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 minor rubbing to the extreme edges and minor handling marks to the upper horizontal and lower right vertical edges. There are a few scattered pinpoint accretions in places to the coloured passages. There are two faint abrasions to the lower right quadrant, the longest measuring approximately 6in. in length. When examined under ultraviolet light there appears to be no evidence of any retouching. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
