Private Collection (acquired directly from the artist)
Private Collection, United States
Acquired from the above by the present owner

This work is in very good condition overall. There is very light evidence of handling and wear to the edges including some scattered pinpoint losses to the pigment at the extreme edges which are only visible upon extremely close inspection, as well as some light rubbing to the pigment at the extreme edges, particularly at the corners. The variations in surface texture and color are inherent to the artist's chosen medium and working method. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.

"I enjoy the sensation of navigating between things which exert different kinds of gravitational pull. I’m interested in counter-point, and in counter-puntal thinking. That is very natural to me—it feels alive." David Salle
