Condition
Executed on thick beige wove paper, not laid down. There are remnants of old framer's tape visible along the edges of the reverse. The lower edge is slightly irregular. A close inspection reveals an artist's pinhole in each of the upper corners and another in the upper left quadrant, towards the corner. Otherwise, apart from some light time-staining and scattered spots of foxing visible on the reverse of the sheet, this work is in very good condition.
