Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There are artist pinholes at the four corners and there is a slight undulation to the sheet, which is inherent to the artist's working method. There is evidence of very faint oil staining to the paper around the paint, which is visible under close inspection. There is a 1/4 inch tear in the top right quadrant, perhaps the result of a minor puncture, and there are some scattered media accretions on the right side of the sheet. The sheet is hinged verso to the matte, intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas. *Please note the auction begins at 9:30 am on November 14th.*
