Condition
This delicate pigment print on fine, semi-translucent tissue is in essentially excellent condition. The tonality ranges from soft reddish-brown to creamy white/grey. There are tiny, scattered pigment deposits overall. There are stray graphite marks in the margins. The margins are faintly age-darkened and soiled with yellow deposits of indeterminate nature, possibly foxing, mainly near the lower right corner of the margin. As is often seen in Kühn's prints, the margin edges are unevenly trimmed. The reverse of the print has not been examined.
