Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There are staple marks and small accompanying losses along the 4 edges of the canvas, which are consistent with the way the work is installed. The surface is very lightly undulated, consistent with the use of an unstretched canvas. There is evidence of light handling along the edges. There are small scattered white accretions.
