Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is creased overall and there are a few staple holes along the top, which appear to be inherent to the artist's working method. Close inspection reveals some minor air bubbles and associated craquelure in the black-painted portion. The sheet is hinged verso to the matte, intermittently along the edges. Framed under glass.
