24" H x 24" W

Other Notes:
The catalog images show the work in the orientation of the current framing, not in the orientation that the artist intended.

Visual: Overall good appearance. Soft stretcher bar creases along each edge, primarily visible in raking light. Scattered areas of fine craquelure. An extremely soft pea-sized pressure mark in the upper left quadrant near the left edge, primarily visible in raking light.

Blacklight: Thin bands along the edges of each corner fluoresce under blacklight, possibly due to touch-up or uneven varnish.

Frame: 25.5" H x 25.75" W x 2.25" D
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.
