Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is extremely light wear to the bottom two and top left outer corners and a loose thread to the tip of the top right hand corner. There is extremely light wear in places along the left overturn edge. There are two tiny brown media stains towards the top left hand corner. There is a very faint rub mark towards the centre of the extreme right hand edge in the upper section of the work.
