Etching and drypoint, 1883, signed in pencil and with the artist's red stamp (Lugt 1545), on wove paper, with wide margins, in good condition apart from pale mat and time stain, remains of adhesive and slight skinning in the lower margin, framed

Condition

The print is in good condition as catalogued. Exposure to an acidic mat has very slightly darkened the paper tone in the margins and the sheet edges have darkened over time. There is a 1 inch band of adhesive remains along the lower sheet edge recto and verso with associated skinned spots.
