Condition
This work is in excellent condition overall. The sheet is hinged on the reverse to the backing board at the top two corners. The edges of the sheet are deckled on all sides. The sheet undulates slightly due to the artist’s choice of medium. Under close inspection there is evidence of minor wear and handling to the edges and corners. There is evidence of stray medium and a few scattered, very minor pinpoint surface accretions. Framed under Plexiglas.
