Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is window matted and hinged on the reverse to the backing board at the top. The sheet is perforated along the left edge. There is some minor undulation to the sheet, due to the artist's choice of medium. There is pale time-staining to the sheet, particularly toward the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
