Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged verso intermittently along the edges to the mat. The left and right edges of the sheet are deckled. All collage elements appear mostly secure in intact, with two examples of slight lifting within the right side of the red striped background and in areas surrounding the mushroom cloud. The texture is inherent to artist's working method. Framed under Plexiglas.
