Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The bottom edge of the sheet is deckled. The colors are bright, fresh and clean. Under very close inspection, a few very minor abrasions are visible in the black margin at the upper edge and in black margin along the lower right and lateral right edges, revealing the underlying layers of pigment and may be inherent to the artist's working method. Under extreme inspection and under raking light, some faint hairline and unobtrusive surface abrasions are visible. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat at the upper right and left corners. Framed under glass.
