Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is a faint scratch at the trunk of the large tree right of center. There is evidence the sheet has made contact with the Plexiglas. There are artist pinholes in the corners of the sheet, which are not visible when framed. There are traces of fingerprints in the lower right quadrant of the work, which is believed to be inherent to the working method of the artist. Framed under Plexiglas.
