Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The top and bottom edges of the sheet are deckled and there are pinholes at the four corners. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist's working method. There are some scattered pinpoint accretions and faint surface abrasions. The sheet is hinted verso to the matte, intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
