Condition
Executed on cream colored laid paper, hinged to a mount at two places near upper corners on verso. The verso of the work bears a pencil sketch which seems to correspond exactly to the composition on the recto of the sheet. Left and bottom edges are slightly deckled. Top and right edges are cut. A few fox marks are visible, one at top edge near center, another near the center of the right edge. Several more are visible on the verso of the work. Sheet is slightly dirty. Small tear, less than one-centimeter in length, on the left edge one inch up from the bottom. A few other tiny nicks around the extreme perimeter. Otherwise fine. This work is in good condition.
