Condition
Condition is consistent with age. There are two pieces missing glass. All of the works could benefit from a cleaning within frame. All have signs of minor paper loss, in particular the two without glass to protect. The work without glass that depicts workers on the railroad track is also torn at the top. This would need to be repaired by a conservator. The group make a handsome collection of Ninas’ work.
