Condition

Laid down on an old sheet of paper, which has been hinge mounted to a paper backing. There are some minor old abrasions and slight areas of discoloration to the extremities of the sheet. The paper has retained much of its original blue color. There have been some losses to areas of the white heightening, however the black chalk remains in very fine condition throughout, with the image strong. Sold in a giltwood frame.
