Condition
Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals some minute media accretions and hairline drying cracks in isolated places throughout and some tiny specks of burnishing which fluoresce lightly when examined under ultra-violet light. Close inspection reveals some light handling marks towards the lower left hand corner tip, a few minute specks of loss to the extreme edges, most noticeably to the lower right hand corner tip and some slight delamination of the card to the upper edge.
