Condition
Pastel on board. Nail heads are visible along the top edge. A likely extension or flattened previous fold extending across the lower edge. The pastel is bright and appears to be in overall good condition. Some small spots of pale brown accretion on the surface of the work, potentially mold, evident in the upper right quadrant and in the girl's hair. A hairline vertical disturbance extending from the girls proper left elbow to the bottom of the work and extending horizontally towards the right edge; this may potentially be an area where paper was added. In overall good condition and ready to hang.
