Condition
sheet surface has faded with time, although retention of colors and details is good; edges are a bit irregular--doesn't appear to be a condition problem--rather indication is that artist cut sheet from originally larger one; sheet is hinged to backing with pieces of tape at corners (was not removed from frame as edges show clearly and are intact)
