This work is in good condition overall. There are artist pinholes at the top center of the sheet. There are scattered graphite smudges and finger prints, which appear to be by the artist's hand and inherent to the artist's working method. The edges of the sheet are slightly lighter than the color of the paper due to a previous matte. There is some very light and scattered pinpoint spots of foxing. The sheet is hinged verso to the matte along the top edge. Framed under Plexiglas. *Please note the auction begins at 9:30 am on November 14th.*
