Condition:
This work is overall in very good condition. There are artist's pinholes in places towards the edges of each print. There is evidence of light bumping to some of the extreme corner tips of the prints. Very close inspection reveals extremely thin and unobtrusive drying cracks to the hand-painted areas of some prints. Close inspection reveals two short and shallow scratches; one running vertically towards the upper left edge of print number 12, and a second one running horizontally towards the centre left upper edge of print number 11. There is a minute speck of surface loss with evidence of light skinning towards the centre of print number 8. There is a short tear (approximately 2cm. long) to the centre of the left edge on print number 5.
