Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is overall light evidence of wear and handling to the work. Additionally, the frame has yellowed slightly with age and exhibits a few fine scattered abrasions. The extreme bottom left corner of the photograph exhibits an inconsitency in the laminate surface which appears consistent with the artist's working method.
