Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate. Condition: This work is in very good condition. All collaged elements are stable. The sheet is attached verso to the backing board in several places and undulates. All four edges are deckled. There are tiny staple holes towards the lower centre of the composition, which are likely to be original. All other surface irregularities are in keeping with the artist's working process and choice of media.
