Condition

This work is in very good condition. The sheet is unevenly cut along all four edges and undulates slightly, which is inherent to the artist's working method. Close inspection reveals a few surface abrasions in places, which are in keeping with the artist's working process. The sheet is hinged verso to the matte along the upper edge. Framed under Plexiglas.
