Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is a slight undulation to the sheet and scattered pinpoint media accretions throughout likely from the time of execution and inherent to the artist’s working method. The edges of the sheet obscured by the frame are deckled and some of the extreme edges of the sheet are frayed inherent to the artist’s chosen paper. The sheet is cornered to the mat at the four corners. Framed under glass.
