Condition

This work is in good condition. There are artist's pin-holes at intervals along all four edges. There is adhesive accretion along the perimeter (presumably due to a former mounting) as well as within the male figure at his shoulders. There are spots of liquid accretion scattered at the bottom and right of the work. There is a loss to the upper left corner and along the left edge 4 1/4 - 4 3/4 from the top. Framed.
