Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artistÂ’s working method. The corners have discolored slightly due to contact with a previous top matte. Under very close inspection, a few minor graphite marks are visible in the colored areas, likely from the time of execution. The sheet is hinged verso to the matte intermittently along the top and lateral edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
