Condition

This work is hinged at the four corners. The sheet has been removed from a sketchbook and the left edge shows evidence of this removal. The work is in generally good condition with slight discoloration at the extreme edges, most likely from the artist, surface dirt and handling creases as expected from a sketch. Not examined out of the frame.
