Condition: This work is in very good condition. The work comprises of four individual sheets held securely under a mount and plexiglass. There is a tiny tear approximately 10cm. below the letter 'A' in the fourth image. There is a very faint rub mark approximately 10cm. to the left of this, visible only upon very close inspection.
