Condition
The paper is flat and is inscribed 'Geschenk v. Karl Blechen a: Electrine von Freyberg' in ink on the reverse. There are two small pieces of white tape on the top corners, probably to strengthen the paper, and a small loss in the lower right corner. Ultra-violet light reveals some very small scattered spots of retouching. The picture is in otherwise good condition and ready to hang.
Presented glazed, in a gilt frame.
