Condition
Executed on thin white wove paper, not laid down, floating in the mount, fixed at the upper corners. The right edge is deckled. There is a pencil sketch on the reverse of the sheet. There is some minor creasing notably in the upper left and very few scattered tiny spots of foxing. Otherwise this work is in very good original condition.
