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 tape along the turnover edges. A glossy varnish layer has been applied. There are some minor tension cracks to the upper horizontal and right vertical turnover edges. There is a faint pattern of horizontal cracks to the thicker impasto in places, these are only visible in strong raking light and appear stable. There is a small loss to the red impasto peak in the upper left quadrant. When examined under ultraviolet light, there is no evidence of any retouching. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
