Condition
The paper is generally in very good condition. There are faint accretions on the surface that appear inherent to the medium of the work and the working method of the artist. There is slight undulation throughout. There are two very slight creases in the top left hand corner of the work The paper is attached to the mount along both the left and right hand edges by archival tape. The top edge of the paper is uneven as the artist has presumably removed it from a sketchbook after execution. Otherwise there do not appear to be any other apparent condition problems with this work. Framed under Plexiglas.
