Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The edges of the sheet are deckled and the sheet exhibits a slight undulation which is inherent to the artist's working method. Additionally, there are a few areas where the paint extends over the sheet as evident in the catalogue illustration. This work is hinged intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
