Condition
Executed on white wove paper, laid down by the artist. The edges are slightly irregular. This work is recto-verso. A close inspection reveals some scattered media marks and a flattened crease down the centre of the work which was almost certainly intrinsic to the artistic process. Apart from some scattered areas of foxing around the crease on the verso, this work is in very good original condition.
