Condition
The sheet is free floating. The left edge of the sheet is uneven. This appears to be consistent with the drawing having been removed from a sketchbook. The lower edge of the sheet has been folded approximately 6.5cm from the bottom and there is a small grid on the underside which is possible a further working by the artist. The sheet rolls and there are some associated horizontal crease. The sheet also appears to have discoloured slightly.
The work is unframed.
