Condition
This work was executed on a thin paper and has been laid down on masonite. This was most probably done by the artist himself as the drawing is not interfered with in anyway. There are several small wrinkles present and visible throughout the surface of the paper due to the laying down onto the masonite. These wrinkles vary in length. Overall, this work is in very good condition.
