Condition

This work is in very good condition. There is slight undulation throughout. The edges appear to have slightly yellowed with age. There is evidence of faint unobtrusive indentations to the paper throughout (most likely lines pressed through from another drawing in the sketch pad). There are faint smudges along the lower edge and ink stains on the lower half of the right edge, which are presumably inherent to the artist's working method. Soft crease along bottom and hard crease lower left corner. Left edge bumped and mintuer tear at upper center.
