Condition Report:
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light wear and handling to the edges of the sheet and the sheet undulates softly. There are tonal and textural variations to the surface of the work, including skips, which are inherent to the artist's working method and chosen medium. There is a horizontal crease through the center of the composition, which is also inherent to the artist's working method and choice of found medium and likely dates to the time of execution. The sheet is hinged verso to the mat intermittently along the edges. Framed under Plexiglas.
