Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. All four edges are deckled. There are minor surface abrasions scattered in the white portion of the paper. There is a very slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist’s working method. There is an impression at the top center of the paper from the hinge beneath. The sheet is hinged verso intermittently along the top and side edges. Framed under glass.
