Condition

The art work appears to be in excellent condition. There is minor lifting of a few collage elements and slight abrasion on one element in the center. Also, small creases are in some paper but are inherent to the work. The hinges may need to redone or reinforced. The piece was examined in the frame, therefore, the condition of the substrate and quality of adhesives were not checked.
