Condition

This work is in good condition overall. The colors are vibrant, and the media layer is stable overall. Deckling is present along each of the extreme edges of the sheet, which is inherent to the sheet selected by the artist. Under raking light inspection, in the upper center quadrant in the field of white pigment, a few very faint blue marks are visible, which correspond to writing on the reverse of the sheet. Unframed.
