Condition
This work is in overall very good condition. Executed on cream laid paper, not laid down and t-hinged to the mount in two places at the upper edge. All four edges are deckled and there are some thin, barely visible paper remnants along the left, upper and right extreme edges, probably from a previous mounting and not visible when framed. There is a minute pinhole to the lower right corner and the sheet is slightly light struck. The colours remain fresh and the medium appears to be in excellent condition.
