Condition
This work is in very good and sound condition overall. The colors are vibrant, the media layer is stable, and all of the painted metal and wire elements are secure and accounted for. On the interior surfaces of the upper and lower white panels a few minor surface scratches and faint scuffs are present, including a fine grey diagonal scuff measuring six inches in length on the lower panel. A few scattered pinpoint spots of media loss are present on the back panel and the surfaces of the wires, however these do not interfere with the optical effect of the work overall. This work is ready to hang.
