The Cotton Gin

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。

Minor wear is along the extreme edges, and artist’s pinholes are to the corners, most of which are not visible when framed. A few minute losses are to the brown passages near the lower edge, in the house passage, and to the tip of the figure’s hat left of center. Pinpoint losses with associated very faint lifting are near the figure’s head near the left edge. Under very close inspection, extremely fine cracking is visible to the heavier passages of white paint. Minute spots of faint rubbing are visible occasionally, primarily to the impasto peaks. A very faint abrasion is below the horse’s head. There is no apparent inpainting visible under ultraviolet light.
