Condition
The sheet is attached to a supporting board with two tabs. The edges of the page are uneven and there are pinholes at each of the four corners. This appears to be consistent with the artist's working materials and method. When viewed out of the frame it is possible to see some mild staining at the extreme edges of the sheet. There appears to be a horizontal scratch at the lower right corner of the composition and a small amount of resulting paint loss. There are also some tiny flecks of paint loss in the thicker areas of gouache. Subject to the above the work appears to be in good condition.
The work is presented in a painted black frame.
