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。

Not examined out of frame. The work is structurally sound. There is a fine layer of surface dust. There are some small losses to the extreme horizontal edges of the panel. There are some minor abrasions in places with associated paint loss, most visible in the lower half of the composition. There are some drip marks and pinpoint accretions in places, most visible to the lower centre of the composition and near the signature. 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 good condition.
