Both sheets are free floating. There is evidence of old tabs at the upper corners on the reverse of the sheets and both are inscribed in pencil with measurements at the lower right horizontal edge. The works are cockled. This has resulted in some horizontal creases. There are further small creases and scuffs at the extreme edges of the works. Both sheets are also time stained and there is some foxing on one of the drawings. There may have been some fading to the brown ink in both drawings. Subject to the above the works appear to be in good overall condition. Please contact the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
