Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist’s working method. There is light evidence of handling along the edges, including light creases along the right edge. There are two very minor and unobtrusive small brown spots of discoloration in the upper right quadrant and three very minor and unobtrusive spots of discoloration in the lower left quadrant. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat intermittently along the top edge. Framed under glass.
