Condition
Executed on cream calico, not laid down, hinged to the overmount along the upper edge. The extreme edges are unevenly cut. There are some tape remnants from a previous mounting on the reverse of the sheet, to all four corners, and two labels on the reverse, which appears to be easily removable. There are a few small dots of black pigment towards the centre of the left edge, possibly original, visible on the catalogue illustration. There is some faint mount staining along the extreme edges, not visible when framed. There is no evidence of retouching under UV light. This work is in very good original condition.
