Condition

Illustration is accurate. Please note that this lot is composed with two sets of four prints each. The first set: on the image, the top left and the top, 2nd and 3rd on the right column are 70 cm high x 90 cm wide (for 2) and 99 cm wide (for 2). The overall condition shows traces of old foldings and some tears to the borders, partly hidden by a patched restoration. Traces of stains and foxies. The giltwood frames in overall pretty fine condition. The second set: on the image, the 2nd, 3rd and 4th on the left column, and the 4th right are 48 cm high x 60 cm wide. Overall condition is fine despite minor foxies and minor stains. The frames with chips. The lot appeals more as decorative purpose than purely print collectors. Nevertheless, the whole lot with both sets remains attractive.
