Condition
The sheet is sound. On close inspection the sheet is very slightly undulated beneath the mount. There appear to be some scuff marks to various places but this is likely to be intrinsic to the work due to the scratching out technique employed by the artist. There is some extremely faint frame abrasion to the left edge. Otherwise in good original condition. Held in a solid black painted wooden frame in fair condition. Under glass and unexamined out of frame.
