Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There are artist's pinholes in the top two corners and two larger holes at the lower left and lower right edges of the sheet, which appear to be inherent to the artist's working method. There is some minor lifting at the bottom corners of the sheet. Hairline craquelure is evident in areas of heavy pigment. The sheet is hinged on the reverse to the backing board. Framed under Plexiglas.
