Some of the more delicate watercolour pigments have faded slightly in this work. The paper has discoloured and there is a line visible at the extreme left hand edge, where the paper has been protected from the light. At the base of the old oak tree, there is a small areas where the paper has been rubbed. This has resulted in some minor pigment loss. This sheet has not been laid down, instead it is attached at various points verso.
