Condition

Because of its size, this print has not been removed from the frame. It appears to be in generally excellent condition. As is typical of prints by Peter Beard, the paper is somewhat wavy because it is floating within the frame and has been extensively illustrated. The Time Is Always Now, New York, gallery and information labels are on the reverse.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report.
