Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the paper tone is slightly deeper and richer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached verso to the backing board in several places. The top edge is deckled. Close inspection reveals some very faint discolouration to the extreme outer edges of the sheet.
