Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light handling along the edges including some light wear in the corners which has exposed the silver underlayer. There is a minor inconsistency to the bronze screen at the middle of the right edge where the underlayer of blue is visible. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed.

Catalogue Note

"I just happen to like ordinary things. When I paint them, I don't try to make them extraordinary. I just try to paint them ordinary-ordinary." Andy Warhol
