Condition
The sheet is fully laid down to a green backing card that has warped very slightly.
There are three noticeable surface markings to the sheet; two small diagonal lines in the bottom left corner and a larger horizontal line running across the bottom right corner. There is a further very minor incision to the extreme top right corner, in line with a rough cutting of the mount card, not visible in the current frame. This excepting the work appears to be in very good condition with bright, vivid colours appearing throughout.
Housed behind glass in a thick, shabbily-painted effect wooden frame.
