Condition
Executed on cream laid paper, not laid down, attached along all four edges to the mount. There is a watermark, intrinsic to the nature of the support, running along the right edge. Apart from a tiny fold to the lower left corner, a small area of minor paper skinning to the centre left edge and some very light time staining to the sheet, this work is in very good condition.
Colours: The paper tone is warmer and the colours stronger in the original.
