Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. All four edges of the sheet are unevenly cut, which is inherent to the artist's method of working. The collage elements are stable and firmly affixed to the sheet. There are four tears along the left edge of the sheet, which are inherent to the artist's method of working. There is a minor undulation to the sheet, which is only noticeable upon close inspection. The sheet has been affixed to the fabric matte along the edges with staples. Framed under Plexiglas.
