Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The edges of the sheet are deckled. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist’s chosen medium and working method. There are several artists’ pinholes along the top corners of the larger sheet and in the collaged element as well as some associated artist scoring to the sheet. The collaged elements are all intact. Under very close inspection, a minor and unobtrusive spot accretion is visible in the center approximately 1-inch from the top edge. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat at all four corners. Framed under Plexiglas.
