Condition
Executed on a folded sheet of cream wove paper, not laid down and hinged to the mount along the right edge. The sheet is time stained, with faint discolouration along the borders relating to previous mounting (not visible when framed) with some fine diagonal creases across upper corners and lower right corner, with a small tear on the unworked half of the sheet. There are some very faint scattered spots of foxing and some minor handling marks to the lower right corner, the latter not visible when framed. This work is in overall good condition.
