Condition
The work is in very good condition. Executed on cream wove paper. The sheet has been hinged to a mount at various places around the extreme perimeter of its verso. Some minor areas of accretion from a previous mounting line the verso of the sheet in a few places. Artist's pinholes may be found at each of the four corners. A couple extremely minor nicks are visible to the outer edge of the sheet, one at lower left and another at lower right. The surface of the sheet is covered with a slightly yellowed fixative as is common to the artist's process.
