Condition
The sheet is affixed to the mount with tabs of adhesive tape at each upper corner. It appears the lower corners were also affixed with adhesive tape but these are loose. The edges of the sheet are deckled or slightly unevenly torn. The sheet undulates slightly, in keeping with the Artist's working methods. There is one tiny vertical tear to the upper edge towards the upper left corner, only visible upon very close inspection. The sheet is slightly time stained and there are one or two tiny accretions. There are very faint handling marks to the edges in one or two places. This excepting, the work appears in excellent overall condition, with strong fresh passages throughout. The work is float mounted and held behind glass in a painted wooden frame. Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
