Condition
This work is in good condition overall. The sheet on which the work was created is irregularly shaped following the artist's intention and composition. The work is hinged verso to the backing board. There are areas of uneven pigmentation in the orange, the foot and the circular ochre pillow. There is a triangular shaped area of clear surface accretion, likely due to the artist's working method only visible in raking light. Framed under Plexiglas.
