Condition
Executed on brown wove paper and not laid down. Taped to the overmount in four places along the edges. All four edges are very slightly unevenly cut. The sheet is slightly time stained and there are a few small spots of foxing away from the composition. The sheet is undulating. Overall this work is in very good condition.
