Exhibited
Milan, Galleria del Naviglio, Mostre 1963, 1963, no. 18
Condition
Executed on cream laid paper, not laid down. The sheet is fixed to the mount at several points along the edges. The edges of the sheet are slightly irregular. A close inspection reveals a very discrete flattened crease or surface indent along the lower left edge, possibly due to an old mount, and an artist pinhole in each of the corners. There is a waviness to the sheet, mostly around the points at which the paper is fixed to the mount, which is inherent to the artistic process and the nature of the paper. Apart from some light time-staining, mostly around the edges and including a slight discoloration of the paper due to light exposure, this work is in very good original condition.
