The Collection of Sidney Rothberg, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
This lot is located in Philadelphia.
Condition
In overall good condition, with lateral edges left semi-bare (to the point we can see the canvas ground) - part of the artist's technique. We do notice slight abrasions, likely due to the frame rubbing along the left outer edge. With two pinholes at upper center and bottom center. Slight scuff (horizontal, about 5in long) in the background at upper center. No sign of restoration as seen under UV light. The work would, however, benefit from a light cleaning. Additional images available upon request.
