Condition

This work is in good condition overall. There is wear and handling to the corners and edges, with some areas of paint and chipping to the board intermittently along the sides. Both edges have several drilled holes into the wood board, presumably by the artist. This work exhibits an uneven paint surface, which is inherent to the artist's working method. There are scattered accretions and several small areas of paint lifting and loss. Under ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.
