Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The collage is soundly affixed and the colors are less vibrant than they appear in the catalogue illustration. There is scattered evidence of mild yellowing to the extreme edges of several collaged fragments, presumably due to the adhesive used during the artistic process. Framed in a shadow box frame under Plexiglas. This work has not been examined out of the Plexiglas encasement.
