Condition

The watercolor is executed on cardboard. Fairly good condition; sheet is slightly time darkened and the blue pigment in the sky has faded. There is a fair amount of what appears to be foxing in the upper left quadrant, with a few additional scattered spots in the river at left. The work is hinged and affixed (but not laid down) in a window mat.
