Paul Kasmin Gallery, New York
Acquired by the present owner from the above in 1990

This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged on the reverse intermittently to the mat. There are intermittent pinholes and a few very minor, unobtrusive tears along the edges . There is an undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist's working method. There is some fine and stable craquelure in the white paint. The discoloration of the sheet, visible in the catalogue illustration, is intentional and original to the work's condition. Framed under Plexiglas.
