Condition

Executed on buff-coloured wove paper, not laid down, loose in the mount. There are small areas of glue residue to all four corners of the reverse from a previous mounting. Apart from some small spots of medium rubbing to the extreme edges of the work caused by the framing, this work is in very good condition. Colours: The blues and reds are more subtle and the whites are creamer in the original.
