Condition
This work is in good condition overall. The paper has been laid down on to a board. The colors are vibrant, and the media layer appears stable. Minor circular losses measuring less than 1/4 inch in diameter are present in each of the four quadrants in the background areas of the composition in addition to the extreme edges of the paper. All of these losses have been stabilized by the board, and do not interfere with the overall effect of the composition. Two tears are present; one vertical along the extreme lower left edge measuring one inch in length, the second triangular in the grey section of the upper right quadrant, measuring one inch in length. Under raking light, faint wrinkling of the sheet becomes apparent along each of the four edges.
