Condition Statement
1/2023: Unclear at what level of deterioration this is at. Original digitized catalog card seems to have a completely different artwork featured. Cannot tell if this heavily faded over time, was a test run, or is just inherently supposed to look like this. *4/2023 update - the other image pictured is a Matisse - La blouse Roumaine, 1940 (Devon D.)
