Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged at the top to the backing board. There is some faint surface soiling and pale time-staining to the sheet. There is a narrow strip of paper laid down near the top of the sheet, due to the artist's working method. Framed under Plexiglas.
