Condition
Collage and mixed media on paper. Executed on brown embossed wrapping paper, not laid down and sandwiched between glass and mount. Collage elements are stable. The extreme edges are unevenly cut. There is brown tape remnant along the extreme edges. There are a few pinholes in places. There are a few repaired tears (the longest of which is approx. 8 cm long) and a few additional smaller tears most predominately to the upper part of the composition. There are a few minor creases in places notably along the left edge. There are a few thin lines of stable craquelure in the black pigment. This work is in fairly good condition.
