Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light handling to the edges of the paper and some minor spot accretions near the signature and at the bottom right. There are some minor abrasions visible when the work is unglazed and under raking light, which are possibly inherent to the artist's working method. The sheet is hinged verso to the matte along the top edge. Framed under glass.
