Condition
Executed on wove cream paper, not laid down, fixed to the mount at the four corners. There are some tiny artist's pinholes at the four corners and along the upper edge with some slight time-staining along the edges (not visible when framed). The sheet is slightly undulating with a few faint glue remnants towards upper and lower centre edges. Except from a few scattered dots of foxing, this work is in good condition.
