Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The coal dust adheres well to the sheet and is stable. There are a few individual pieces of coal dust that have fallen from the sheet to the bottom of the frame, which is inherent to the medium. There are soft creases to the upper and lower left corners, which are only visible upon close inspection. There is a pinpoint indentation and an uneven edge at the upper right corner, which is inherent to the working method of the artist. Framed.
