Condition
Colour:
The colours in the cataouge illustration are fairly accurate, although the pigment is brighter and more vibrant, and the paper tends more towards white in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached to the backing board at intervals on the reverse. There are artist's pin holes in all four corners and intermittently along the top extreme edge. The horizontal edges are deckled and the vertical edges are uneven. On close inspection there are some very faint handling marks running along the vertical edges. There are two minor tears on the right extreme edge; one to the centre and one towards the top corner, and a tiny nick on the right extreme edge towards the lower corner.
