Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The photograph is hinged verso to the mat intermittently along the edges. There is evidence of soft undulations and creasing throughout. The edges show minor discoloration, and the bottom left edge is slightly torn, likely inherent. There is a round spot of light pink discoloration to the right of the cheek. Framed under Plexiglas.
