Condition Report:
i : canvas :
Close inspection reveals usual wear and handling marks along the outer edgesVery close inspection shows tiny scattered media accretions in places. On the grey part of the work, there are some faint vertical irregularities due to the artist’s choice of media. Upon extremely close inspection, there is a dent towards the lower right edge.
ii : shelf
The medium is non-artistic and it is an up cycled object : there is dust, scratches, rub marks, media accretions, abrasions, media accretion, losses in places.
All other irregularities are inherent to the artist’s choice of media and technique.
This work could benefit from a light clean.
