Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat at the top two corners. The sheet is undulating due to the artist's choice of medium and working method. There is evidence of some pale time staining to the sheet and a few liquid surface accretions along the lower perimeter, particularly the lower right edge. Framed under Plexiglas.
