Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The surface is bright, fresh and clean. There is a very slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist's working method. There are some very minor and unobtrusive pinpoint accretions along the top border, at the center right edge, in the S of Clause and in the second C of Corkscrew. The sheet is hinged verso intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
*Please note the auction begins at 9:30 am on November 14th.*
