Condition
In general the colours are in good condition, although there has been some overall slight fading. There are several areas of paper discoloration, and occasional very minor foxmarks. Around the extreme edges of the sheet there are small areas of pigment loss (this is associated with previous framing). There are scratches visible on close inspection. The sheet has been laid down onto canvas. Overall the work has been well preserved.
