Condition

2.7.24-

In my opinion regarding LOT: 034-The work is on board, a UV examination was mostly unremarkable, showing only some light drips or dirt at the lower left quadrant, I do observe craquelure, mostly noted throughout the black painted areas, there are some scattered small chips to paint, concentrated mostly along right and left edges, light paint wear, a nick to the board at center right edge, see image, there are some small imperfections that are likely intrinsic to the work being on board, I have taken numerous images for your review, we did not examine the work behind the dust cover as it appears to have a white foam board at back

Please see attached images for your review.
