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.
This work has not been examined unframed. The paper elements have shifted in tone. Light soiling and discoloration is throughout and minor rubbing and loss is to the gold leaf, likely in keeping with the natural aging process of the media. A few soft creases and faint abrasions are also throughout, likely in keeping with the artist's working method. Only visible under raking light and close inspection, a hairline tear is to near the upper left edge. There is no apparent inpainting visible under ultraviolet light.
