This work is in very good condition overall. There is a light layer of dust that has adhered to the surface and the crevices of the plasticine. Upon close inspections there are faint cracks to the plasticine: two, approximately 5 inches in length, running vertically along the right edge, various running intermittently along a band vertically down 39 inches from the right corner, and a 9 inch running horizontally through the center of the upper left quadrant of the composition. Framed.
