Condition

This work is in excellent condition. Executed on cream wove paper. The sheet is held behind a window mat which is glued down to a backing board. The sheet is bright and fresh and there are no tears or stains. Please note that since the sheet is held in a mat glued to the backing board, it is difficult to measure the sheet exactly. The width dimension is accurate but there may be a small variation in the height.
