Literature

Condition

Executed on cream laid paper, not laid down. The sheet is hinged to the over-mount at two points along the upper edge. There are remnants of old mounting tape on the reverse, in the centre of the upper and lower edges. There are six evenly-spaced tiny tears to the left edge of the sheet seemingly due to the sheet's extraction from a sketch book. Apart from a few tiny scattered spots of foxing and some light time-staining, this work is in very good original condition.
