Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is very minor evidence of wear and handling to the edges which are deckled. There are multiple artist pinholes in the corners. There is a very slight undulation to the sheet, which is slightly discolored due to age. In the upper right corner, there is a repaired partial tear. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
