Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The edges of the photograph have curled inwards slightly, inherent to the artist’s intent. Under very close inspection, the photo-paper exhibits very fine and light hairline craquelure throughout, inherent to the artist’s chosen medium. The variation in coloration also appears inherent to the artist’s working method and chosen medium. The photograph is pinned to the matte in the corners with white ball-tipped pins. Framed under glass.
