Condition
Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down, hinged to the mount at the top two corners, floating in the mount. There are some tape remnants to the lower left and right corners on the reverse. There is a small tear to the right of the lower edge. There is some very slight foxing and some light time staining, mainly visible in the sky. This work is in very good condition.
Colours: Overall fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, although the blues in the sky are more green in the original.
