Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There are artist's pinholes at the top corners. All of the collaged elements are well intact. Upon close inspection there are some very light surface accretions in the lower left of the composition and some very minor adhesive residue noted surrounding the collaged elements. There is evidence of minor fading to the pigment of the ink. The sheet is window matted and hinged on the reverse at the top to the backing board. Framed under glass.
