Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is a very slight undulation to the sheet. Additonally, there are scattered light smudges and evidence of light wear which are presumably inherent to the artist's working method. There are artist's pinholes at the top two corners. The sheet is hinged verso to the matte at intervals along the edges with archival tape. Framed under Plexiglas.
