This work appears in fair condition overall. The pigments in the sheet appear to have discolored with age as visible in the catalogue illustration. There are scattered very fine and unobtrusive hairline abrasions, the most noticeable is an area located approximately 1 ½ in. from the top edge and 5 in. to the right of her hair. The sheet is hinged intermittently verso to the archival matte. Framed.
