Condition
Matted and unframed. This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged to the backing board at the top. The sheet has darkened over time except for a 1 in. band along the right edge and a 1/4 in. band along the top edge possibly due to prior matting. There are minor soft creases throughout and a small 1/4 inch tear to the sheet at the upper right corner.
