Condition
Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down. The sheet is affixed to the mount at intermittent points along the edges of the verso and is slightly undulating. The upper edge is deckled. There are some minor creases running horizontally towards the lower edge, possibly inherent to the artistic process, and a few very minor handling creases along the edges, all only visible under close inspection. This work is in very good condition.
