The sheet is lightly laid down onto board. There is a tear (approx. 3 in. in length) to the lower right section of the sheet which would benefit from sensitive restoration. There is some minor damage to the extreme upper corners and to some frame abrasion to the extreme edges. There is minor craquelure in places, particularly to the darker pigments with some tiny flecks of paint loss on very close inspection. Held in a simple wooden frame in fair condition. Under glass and unexamined out of frame.
