This work is recto-verso. Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down. The left edge is perforated consistent with extraction from a sketchbook. The sheet is affixed to a window mount at the four corners and the verso is floating in an overmount. The sheet is gently undulating and lightly time-stained with faint handling marks along the extreme perimeter. There is a small spot of foxing in the background at the centre of the upper right quadrant of the verso. This work is in good overall condition.
