12.19.25- In my opinion regarding LOT: please note that I am not an expert on such works, a careful visual examination reveals the sheet is taped to the backing along the full top edge, the lower margin shows a tape remnant at the center though the sheet is no longer affixed, a protective sheet is hinged along the left edge of the work, covering the reverse, paper edges are deckled, the sheet presents with overall toning and areas of discoloration consistent with age, the sheet is slightly wavy, the backing and mat show additional toning along the edges, I do not observe any rips or tears, the frame is simple and exhibits small rubs and minor wear commensurate with display
