Condition

The board is stable. There is a thin line (approx. 2 cm long) and a few tiny spots of fluorescence visible under UV light to the central element inherent to the artistic process which does not rely to any in painting or damage. There is some frame rubbing and some small spots of paint loss along the edges. Otherwise this work is in very good original condition.
