Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the paper tone tends more towards a true white in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is hinged verso to the backing mount in several places. All four edges are deckled. There is some evidence of very light and unobtrusive handling to the upper edge. Close inspection reveals a few minute and unobtrusive spots of foxing towards the lower half of the composition. Further very close inspection reveals a few extremely light and unobtrusive stains towards the centre of the composition, and one to the right edge, 25 cm from the upper right corner.
