Condition Report:
Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down and affixed to the mount in several points on the reverse and floating in its mount. All edges are slightly deckled with associated tiny nicks. The sheet is slightly undulating along the left and right edges. There are a few studio marks in places, notably towards the center and along the left edge (as visible in the catalogue illustration). The sheet is a bit light stained. There is some minor rubbing associated with a tiny pigment loss to the blue impasto. This work is in overall good condition.
