Condition
Executed on cream laid paper, not laid down. The sheet is affixed to the mount at intermittent points along the perimeter of the verso and is floating in its mount. The edges are deckled and slightly unevenly cut with minor handling marks and creases, notably in the upper and lower left corners. The sheet is gently undulating and there are a few scattered studio marks in places. This work is in overall very good condition.
