Condition

This work is in good condition overall. The collage paper elements are mounted to board. There is pale time staining, minor lifting, faint abrasions and tears to the collage paper elements. There is wear to all edges and a few areas of scattered accretions to the sheets. A soft undulation and overall unevenness to the surface of the work due to the artistÂ’s choice of medium and working method is evident. There is some leftover adhesive residue in a few scattered areas and pinholes along the four edges. Under Ultraviolet light inspection there is no evidence of restoration. Framed.
