Condition
The sheet is sound and is fully laid down onto card. The mount covers the spiral bounding evident from the original sketch pad.
There is slight discolouration to the sheet, most probably as a result of its acidic backing card. Further spots of staining are visible to isolated areas. There is a faint crease running horizontally through the top half of the work, however this excepting the work appears to be in very good condition.
Housed behind glass in a thin gold frame and set within an off-white mount.
