Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The fabric on the blue element exhibits discoloration, presumably inherent to the artist's working method. On the white Z-Shaped element, there is yellowing of the paint at the top and bottom lateral creases, which also appears inherent to the artist's working method. The white cloth element exhibits scattered light stains. The fraying edges of the cloth appear inherent to the artist's working method.
