Condition
This work is in very good and sound condition overall. All elements are present and stable. There is some lifting to some of the paper collage elements, visible upon close inspection. There is some minor adhesive residue visible. The edges of the cardboard are roughly cut and there are creases to the paper elements, both of which are inherent to the artist's chosen medium and working method. There is minor stable craquelure to the green painted passage, visible upon close inspection.
