拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

The work is structurally sound. A fine layer of surface dust is present. Slight discoloration is to the painted board. Tiny nicks and a few faint surface scratches and scuffs are to the artist's frame. Wear and small losses are to the edges of the board and inner frame, most notably to the lower right corner. A few hairline cracks are near the lower edge of the board. Surface variation, including occasional pinholes, intermittent spots of paint loss, hairline abrasions, wear to the steel elements, and areas of discoloration and slight creasing to the collaged elements are presumably in keeping with the artist's working method and choice of medium. There is no apparent inpainting visible under ultraviolet light.
