Condition
Executed on blue wove paper. Attached to a mount across the top edge on the verso with the aid of a hinge reinforcement. There is a faint mat stain along the extreme perimeter of the sheet less than 1 cm thick. The edges of the sheet are slightly uneven, as if they have been trimmed (especially at the left). A few black studio stains are visible in the lower right quadrant of the sheet. The sheet is slightly undulating under the pigment and a few areas exhibit dried pools of gouache; this is inherent to the work. There is an area of accretion around the top right corner of the sheet from a prior mounting. Overall the work is in very good condition.
