Condition

Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the paper tone tends more towards creamy ivory in the original. This work is in good condition. The paper is taped at the four corners to the mount. There are a few foxing spots as can be seen in the catalogue illustration. There is a brownish discoloured thin line along the extreme upper edge not disturbing the image. Upon close inspection under raking light there are a few finger shaped creases.
