Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged on the reverse to the backing board along the top edge. There are artist's pinholes in all four corners. There is evidence of pale time staining and light wear to the corners of the sheet. There is a subtle undulation to the sheet due to the artist's choice of medium. Only visible under very close inspection, there are a few very minor pinpoint areas of foxing. Framed under glass.
