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 edges of the panel are covered by its frame. The work is structurally sound. There are some minor surface inconsistencies, in keeping with the nature of the panel. There are some pinpoint paint losses in places, the most visible to the centre of the left vertical edge and to the centre of the lower horizontal edge. There is a minor brown media mark to the white passage in the lower left quadrant. 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.
