Condition

Executed on cream wove paper which has not been laid down. The four edges of the sheet are deckled. The verso of the sheet is not accessible because it has been attached to the mat in the four corners and in several places along the periphery. There is a minor, repair to the paper, approximately 1/2 in. long in the lower right quadrant at the right edge. There appears to be minor surface dirt to the upper left quadrant in the form of three spots visible in the catalogue illustration. The pigments and colours are fresh and strong and in great condition with minimal time fading. The work is in very good condition.
