Condition

Laid down on old mount. There is some disruption to upper right corner, a small vertical tear at right side of upper edge with a small loss at the top made up. The paper at the corner has wrinkled as a result of being laid down. The ink is slightly sunk in parts, and the upper right quarter appears somewhat faded as a result of some dampness, although this is unclear. Sold in attractive wooden golded frame.
