Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There are scattered very light dust accretions on the surface of the oilstick. There is an exposed staple mark approximately 2 1/2 in. from the top edge in the middle of the composition, which is presumably inherent to the artist's working method. Otherwise, there are no apparent condition problems with this work. Framed.
