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。

The sheet is hinged in places on the reverse to its underlying support and the edges undulate slightly. There is a minute crease to the upper left corner with associated lifting. There is another spot of minute lifting to the lower left corner, presumably in keeping with the artist's chosen medium. There is a pinpoint paint loss to the lower right corner. There is a pinpoint accretion to the upper left quadrant, presumably studio related. There is a hairline irregularity in the lower left quadrant, presumably inherent to the artist's chosen medium. 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.
