Condition
Executed on cream wove paper, laid down on card. There is a repaired tear to the right of the upper edge and a small nick to the lower right edge. There are two further tiny tears to the lower right corner and to the right of the lower edge. There is a small paper loss to the centre of the right edge, possibly from the original sheet the artist used. There is slight medium shrinkage to the head of the trumpet player and some slight unevenness and discolouration just below the pianist's chair. There appears to be time-staining to the sheet. This work is overall in good condition.
