Condition

This work appears to be done on brown craft-like paper. There is a 2 in. area of bubbling in the upper left quadrant and there are 3 small cracks in the sky nearby due to this. There are two parallel vertical scratches that are each 3 in. long in the first yellow rose in the center of the painting. There are spots of brown liquid staining throughout the work. This work is pastel on paper mounted on canvas and it is unexamined out of the frame.
