Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The colors are bright, fresh and clean. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artistÂ’s working method. There is evidence of light wear and handling along the edges of the sheet. The sheet has discolored slightly with age especially around the edges where the work has been in contact with the mount. Under very close inspection there are some extremely faint creases visible in the lower left corner and both the upper corners. There are some very faint abrasion marks visible in the upper left corner and along the lower edge. There is a blue media accretion visible towards the left edge 4 inches from the upper edge, likely from the time of execution. The sheet is hinged verso to top matte intermittently along the upper edge. Framed under glass.
