Doug Hatch (American, B. 1954) Number 1 Chicago: Weight and Whimsy. Oil on canvas, signed, titled, and dated January 1988 en verso Canvas: 35.5" x 47.5" Frame: 36.5" x 49"

The upper left corner and lower left edge of the painting sustain cracking. The sky and the buildings within the left half sustain a few scattered specks on the surface. There are five dents, but no holes or paint loss associated with them. There is an 11" narrow strip of canvas glued to the reverse, behind the tallest street light, but apparently no corresponding tear or damage on the painting surface (reason unknown and probably applied by the artist).
