Condition
This work is in good condition overall. There are water marks along the spine edge of the book cover, not intrusive to the prints. There is a small area of a darker tone at the left bottom of the fourth print, presumably inherent to the artist's working method. There are signs of very light foxing at the top left corner and bottom right corner of the fifth print and minor foxing at the top left corner of the seventh print, consistent with the age of the work.
