Condition

This work appears in very good condition. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, presumably inherent to the artist's working method. There are a few scattered splash media accretions in the white margins which also appear inherent to the artist's working method. The work is hinged to the matte verso at the top two corners. Framed under glass.
