Labels verso to frame for framer in Prince st Pettah Sri Lanka.
Under a loop the work appears as an ink impression with varying thickness of ink so definitely not digital prints. No signatures however one impreesion seen out of frame does have edition numbers and notations present verso.

Each work has puckering of paper, probably caused by humidity. There is also a yellowing of the paper but not to much foxing.
