Condition

Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down, affixed to the mount in several points along the extreme edges. Upper and right edges are slightly deckled with associated spots of minor paper skinning. There are a few minor creases in places, notably to the extreme lower left corner. The sheet is light stained with a few scattered dots of discolouration, possibly related to restored foxing and away from the composition. This work is in overall good condition.
