Condition
There has been some minor fading to the colours throughout. Around the extreme edges of the sheet, there is some occasional pigment loss (associated with previous framing). There are two small tears located on the right hand edge of the sheet. On the left hand edge of the sheet is a small indentation, probably caused by a heavy object being placed on the paper. The sheet has been laid down onto canvas. Overall the condition is fair.
