This work is in very good condition overall. There is light evidence of handling to the edges. The sheet has discolored slightly with age. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist’s working method and chosen medium. There is a very minor pinpoint hole in the lower right corner. In the red figure in the lower left section there is stable cracking. There is a small loss in the yellow section at the top of the circus stand. The colors are bright, fresh and clean. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
