Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is a very small and unobtrusive paper loss located approximately 16 1/4 in. from the left edge. The paper has yellowed slightly with age. There are unpainted areas at the corners which presumably correspond to where the paper was mounted during the execution of the work. Framed.
