Condition
Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly lighter and cooler in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is hinged verso to the backing in numerous places and undulates slightly. All four edges are deckled. There are artist's pin holes towards the two upper corners of the sheet. Close inspection reveals some light handling marks in places throughout which look to be original.
