Condition

The drawing is laid down on a thin sheet. There is some surface dirt throughout, pale staining in the sheet edges and some small losses and related rubbing in the upper right corner. There is a long, horizontal crease extending towards the figure's right shoulder and a short vertical crease extending up from the center of the lower edge; both appear to be inherent in the paper manufacture.
