Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the paper tone tends more towards soft cream in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is hinged verso to the mount in several places and undulates very slightly. The horizontal and right edges are deckled. There are artist's pinholes in the upper two and lower left corners. Extremely close inspection reveals two pinprick-sized media accretions to the upper edge. All other surface irregularities are original.
