Condition

Executed on cream laid paper, not laid down. The sheet is fixed to the mount along the upper edge and is floating in its over-mount. The left and upper edges are slightly irregular. A close inspection reveals a few tiny scattered specks of foxing and faint media marks. There is a small remnant of tape visible on the reverse as well as a small stain where the paper is slightly blanched. Apart from some light time-staining, mostly along the edges, this work is in very good original condition.
