Condition
Executed on white wove paper, not laid down, glued to the mount around the edge of the sheet. There is one small indentation and a pinhead-sized hole to the back of the largest bather, with associated surface rubbing and probably intrinsic to the artist's process. Apart from some light overmount staining to the bottom left and right edges, and some light scattered foxing in the lower left quadrant, this work is in good condition.
