Condition

These works are in very good condition overall. Upon close examination of 'Eyes Opened', pinpoint black spots, possibly original from the printing process, are observed to be scarcely scattered along the center bottom edge which is unobtrusive to the main composition. A faint hairline scratch is observed on the left edge located approximately 7 cm up from the bottom left corner. Please note that both works were examined within their frames. Framed under Plexiglas.
