Condition

As catalogued, the print is generally in good condition. The print was previously adhered to a backmat and attempts to remove it have resulted in losses at left which include three small holes (c. 1/4 inch diameter each), with associated skinning, some backed with Japan. The right margin has a 7 inch vertical tear with associated skinning, partially breaking through, backed with Japan. The verso is discolored due to removal of backmat and adhesive.

Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion.
