Condition

This work appears to be in generally good overall condition. The paper is slightly wavy because of the choice of media and of working method. The paper is lightly yellowed towards the upper central area, as visible in the catalogue illustration. There are some light traces of folds towards the centre of the right margin and of the left margin and along the upper left edge. This work has been examined unframed and on the reverse it is fixed to the board by the two upper corners and towards the centre of the lower edge.
