Areas of wear to the pigment, primarily in the lower left and right quadrants, and the largest area measuring 2" H x 3" W in the lower right quadrant. A pea-sized area of residue adhered to the surface near the upper edge, at center. Frame abrasion along the extreme edges, attendant with prior framing. Four skillful repairs in the upper half of the painting.

Blacklight: Small touch-ups scattered primarily in the outer edges, the largest measuring 1.25" H x 0.75" W near the upper left corner.

Unframed Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran's catalogue or can be made available upon request. The absence of a condition report does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction.
