Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There are artist's pinholes along all edges and there is a slight undulation to the sheet. There are a few minor surface accretions throughout and all other surface smudges are presumably inherent to the artist's working method. This work is hinged verso to the matte intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
