Condition

Executed on cream wove paper which has not been laid down. There is a mat stain along the top and the right edges. There is uniform time staining to the sheet commensurate with age. There is a minor vertical tear toward the center of the top edge. There is a loss along the top edge of the sheet in the shape of a long thin band, resulting from a previous hinging to the mat. Both of these losses to the top edge are hidden by the mat. The work is in largely good condition.
