Laurence Stephen Lowry, R.A.

Gifted by the Artist to the present owner, an associate at Ganymed Originals Ltd in the 1960s

The sheet is attached to the mount with two tabs along the upper edge. The left and upper edges of the sheet are slightly uneven, thought to be in keeping with the artist's materials. There are very minor creases to the bottom right and bottom left corners. There are handling marks to all four corners. There is time staining to the sheet, most apparent when viewed out of the frame. There are some light scattered spots of foxing to the sheet. Subject to the above, the work appears to be in good overall condition. The work is window mounted and presented in a simple gilt wooden frame, held under glass.
