Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is light evidence of handling to the edges, including a faint crease in the upper right corner and some skinning along the bottom edge towards the left with a resultant minor loss to the sheet. There are artist’s pinholes at the upper right and left corners. Under very close inspection, a few faint brown spot accretions are visible in the lower half of the sheet. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat intermittently along the lateral edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
