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 corners and lower horizontal edge. There are a few minute drying cracks in places, most notably to the white passages. There are pinpoint losses to the impasto peaks in places to the centre and one minor loss to the extreme lower right vertical edge. 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 very good condition.
