Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist's working method. Under close inspection, there is evidence of some light foxing and a light graphite line running vertically approximately 6 inches from the top of the central circle. There are two small accretions along the left edge. The sheet is hinged verso along the corners to the matte. Framed under Plexiglas.
