Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. Mounted on cardboard, the sheet is taped at three parts along the top edge. The bottom edge of the sheet is deckled, inherent to the medium. There is evidence of minor darkening along the four edges on the front of the sheet, consistent with the age of the work. There is one tape residue from the previous mount along the top edge. The sheet is slightly undulating in the center, only visible under very close examination. Framed under Plexiglas.
