Condition
The sheet has been laid down onto a backing sheet, which is attached intermittently on the reverse to the mount. The 'ED' stamp appears to be on a different sheet which has been laid down on the lower right corner. There is a faint mark in the upper-left corner, possibly relating to old adhesive residue. Otherwise the work is in good condition. Presented framed and glazed, the edges of the sheet visible and not covered by the mat.
