Visual: Overall generally good condition. Soft stretcher bar creases showing along the upper and left edges. Very fine craquelure throughout the darker pigments, and areas of unstable craquelure with attendant pinhead-sized pigment losses in the lower left quadrant. The canvas is rippled, possibly attendant with the canvas relining process.

Blacklight: Scattered areas of pinhead-sized spots of touch-up throughout, primarily showing along the left and lower edges, with a 1.5" H x 1" W area at the top of the figure's head.

Frame: 29.75" H x 26.5" W x 1.5" 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.
