Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged at the reverse of the upper edge and corners to the backing board. All of the elements appear to be present and stable. There are handling marks, soft creates and minor lifting in places, all inherent to the artist's working method and chosen medium. There are two areas of residual adhesive that most likely indicate the loss of paper collage elements to the central left edge and the lower right corner, both visible upon close inspection. Framed under Plexiglas.
