Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The top and bottom edges of the sheet are deckled. Under very close inspection and under raking light, a soft crease to the sheet is visible along the upper right edge and there is an orange pinpoint accretion in the lower right quadrant of the diamond dust. The sheet is hinged intermittently along the edges to a white backing board and sandwiched between two glass panels. Framed under glass.
