Condition

This work is in very good condition. The sheet is very lightly yellowed at the edges and is very slightly rippled, presumably a result of the aqueous media. There is evidence of a faint adhesive residue on the reverse. The sheet is hinged at the top edges verso to the rag board matte. Framed under glass.
