Condition

Executed on tracing paper, not laid down, affixed to the mount at two points along the verso of the upper edge and floating in the mount. The sheet is gently undulating and there is some faint creasing throughout, most notably towards the upper left corner and two diagonal lines running from the centre of the upper edge. The sheet is lightly time-stained and there are some scattered spots of foxing mostly to the background. There are faint handling marks and media stains throughout the background which are possibly inherent to the artist's process. There is a very small restoration to the lower left corner. This work is in good overall condition.
