AN ABSENTEE BID PLACED IN ADVANCE COULD LOSE TO A LIVE BID OF EQUAL AMOUNT PLACED LATER. First bid precedence is not possible in auctions that incorporate live bidding via multiple online platforms, live bidders participating in the sale room and live telephone bidders. The only ways to avoid the possibility of losing the bid in this manner is to attend the live auction or bid absentee with plus-one option.

Without proof of exemption, be aware that internet sales tax applies to all Internet transactions and local sales tax may apply to local pick-up transactions.

We happily provide seamless in-house packing and shipping services on nearly everything we sell.

Very good condition, not laid down, probably the full sheet, margins are good, no damage, stain, puncture or repair. There is a very faint and pale outline from an earlier mat. The work is framed to archival standards in acid free mounts.
