Condition Report

In good condition.

The work is on paper stretched over a canvas strainer with a wood panel backing. It appears that this backing is right next to the canvas support as there is no give to the work. It is quite stiff. It is possible that the artist stretched the paper to the canvas support himself. The work is painted right up to the edge of the face of the support with very little pigment on the overlap. The materials all appear to be of the same age.

Any condition statement is given as a courtesy to a client, is only an opinion and should not be treated as a statement of fact. Doyle New York shall have no responsibility for any error or omission. The absence of a condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging.
