Not examined out of frame. The sheet appears to be hinged in places on the reverse to its underlying support. All collage elements appear to be present and adhere well to their underlying support. There are artist's pinholes to the four extreme corners. The upper horizontal edge is deckled. The sheet has shifted in tone, consistent with the ageing process, primarily to the outer extreme edges and to the areas of adhesive tape collage. There is a minute tear to the left extreme vertical edge, measuring approximately 0.5 cm. in length. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
