Condition

This work is in good condition overall. The cardboard support is laid down to the backing board. All of the collage elements are well intact. The edges of the sheet are rough and the surface texture is uneven, due to the artist's working method and choice of materials. There is time staining to the newsprint collage and some fine craquelure in the yellow pigment. Framed under Plexiglas.
