Condition
Executed on brown paper laid down on board. A few scattered pindot losses are present toward the extreme top left and bottom left edges as well as two to the right of the figure on horseback. The extreme edges are also mat-stained. A flattened crease runs diagonally along the bottom right corner and a couple minor spots appear to have been filled in this area. Overall the work is in generally good condition.
