Condition

Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down. This work is in good condition. The sheet is fixed to the over-mount along the edges. A close inspection reveals a few spots of foxing to the sheet, notably in the upper right margin. There are two faint flattened creases running horizontally across the sheet, one towards the centre and another in the lower half of the composition, and another running diagonally across each of the upper corners.
