Condition

This work is in excellent condition. The left, top, and right edges are inherently deckled, related to the manufacture of the paper. There is a one-inch repaired Y-shaped tear located along the bottom edge, 10 ½ inches from the lower left corner. The sheet is mounted to ragboard at intervals along the top edge and framed in a wood frame painted white under Plexiglas with a wide float.
