Condition
Executed on cream wove paper, attached to a board. The board is very slightly bowed. There are some surface scratches and minor abrasions in places, and a few glue remnants to the black border, inherent to the artist's mounting process. There is some general wear to the extreme edges of the board, most prominently to the lower left, upper left and upper right corners. There are a few small stains to the central image, possibly inherent to the artist's process. This work is in overall good condition.
