Condition

This work is in good condition overall. The sheet is hinged on the reverse in multiple locations to the backing board. All of the collaged elements are stable and well intact. The irregular surface texture and edges of the collage elements are due to the artist's chosen medium and working method. There are a few minor areas of adhesive residue visible, also due to the artist’s working method. Under close inspection, there are some very minor linear surface scratches to the sheet. There is very minor wear to the extreme perimeter of the sheet and 4 corners. Framed under Plexiglas.
