Condition

This work is in good condition overall. All of the collage elements are well intact. There is pale time staining to the cardboard support. The board is bowing slightly and has some minor wear in the upper right edge. There is some adhesive residue evident and some very minor fraying to the fabric, due to the artist's working method and choice of medium. Framed in a Plexiglas box frame.
