Metro Pictures, New York
Private Collection

These works are in very good condition overall. They present some evidence of wear and handling, which is consistent with their "found" nature. In some instances, there is some soiling to the surface, also inherent to the works and consistent with their "found" nature. The works are all unframed except for the two owls.
