Condition
The work is in very good overall condition. The sheet is hinged to the mat backing at several points along the edges, verso. The sheet edges are visible in the current mat and frame. There is some evidence of creasing in the margins and corners, some very minor handling marks and minor undulation to the sheet. The colors are fresh and the work presents very well.
