Condition
Executed on thick cream laid paper, not laid down, fixed to the mount near the left and right edges. The left and right edges are uneven with some time staining and tiny spots of foxing. The surface of the paper is scuffed and buckled in places with some handling smudges and minor creases, notably on the figure's left arm and in the lower right corner, otherwise this work is in good original condition.
