Condition
Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down, and attached to the mount along all four edges. There is some very pale mount staining along the extreme upper edge and a tiny spot of discolouration to the woman's hair. Otherwise, this work is in overall very good condition.
Colours: overall fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, though the papertone is slightly warmer in the original.
