Condition
Executed on cream wove paper laid down on acidic card. The card is quite worn, with remnants of a prior gluing around the perimeter of the sheet and it is somewhat warped. As a result the sheet is somewhat time darkened, especially around the edges and in the upper right corner. While there is some fading to the most thinly applied pigments, especially in the sky at upper left, the colors in the main image remain bright and fresh. There are a few scattered fox marks in the sky, otherwise fine. Work is in fairly good condition.
