Condition
The medium is pastel and pencil on paper laid down on card. The work is in fairly good overall condition. The sheet edges are uneven and have some losses and minor tears in some places. There are traces of old adhesive along the edges also. There is a small circular point of skinning in the top center, just below the edge, the aforementioned not visible in the current matting. There are several spots where some moisture or liquid appears to have disrupted the pastel surface, in the central and right portions of the work. The colors are strong and the work presents very well.
