The Collection of Sidney Rothberg, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania


This lot is located in Philadelphia.

Condition
In overall good condition. As all four corners of the sheet are visible through the glass, the work was not examined out of its frame. The sheet appears to be affixed to a larger sheet of black laid paper at all four corners. With a network of pinholes in each corner, and a Strathmore blind stamp at bottom right. The sheet is lightly toned. It remains flat, with no evidence of tear or loss around the outer edges. Light surface soiling along the left outer edge, as a result of the charcoal itself used by the artist. With an entrapped rescue between the work and the glass at upper right (easily removable once the work is unframed). Additional images available upon request.
