Condition
This work is in good condition overall. The top edge of the sheet is perforated and there are red paint marks along the bottom left edge, which is presumably by the hand of the artist. There is evidence of wear and handling to the edges as well as a loss in the paper sheet that measures 1 ¼ by 2 ¼ inches located on the lower right corner. There appears to be scattered smudging and an accretion on the lower middle edge. The sheet is hinged verso at the top edge. Framed under Plexiglas.
