Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The top, lower right and bottom edges of the sheet are deckled. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist’s working method. There are two artist’s pinholes in each corner and at the center of the right and left edges. Under very close inspection, there are four small areas of skinning to the paper along the right edge, possibly from the time of execution. The colors are bright, fresh and clean. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
