Condition Report:
There is surface cracking throughout the composition, most noticeably along the upper margin with associated chip losses and what appear to be drying cracks in the dark gray pigment at center. The surface of the work is uneven and bulging in select areas and appears to be dirty. Although some pigments read strongly under UV, they appear to be artist's original.
