Condition
This work is in good condition overall. There is evidence of general light handling and wear to the steel, and the irregularities to the patina appear to be original and inherent to the artist's chosen materials. The glass panel rests against a felt strip along the side of the steel. There is some felt strip reside from a previous felt adhesive along the edges. The glass can be secured to the steel by some small intermittent dabs of silicone.
