Condition
Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down, and taped to the over-mount at the upper and right edges. The left edge is perforated and the perforations are torn after having been removed from a sketchbook. The sheet is time-stained and there are some scattered spots of foxing. The sheet is very slightly undulating in places and there are a few minor creases in places and tiny nicks to the edges. This work is in overall good condition.
