Condition
Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down, hinged to the window-mount with tape in two places along the upper edge; both recto and verso are visible in the mount. There are three small nicks to the extreme left edge. The sheet is very slightly time stained and there are some studio marks around the edges. Otherwise this work is in very good original condition.
