Condition
Unexamined out of frame. The sheet has been laid down to the mounting board. The left edge of the sheet has been slightly unevenly torn. There is a large vertical crease running along the sheet, roughly a third of the way in from the left edge which has resulted in some minor paint loss. There is some light cracking throughout the ochre tones which has resulted in losses to the paint throughout the sheet. There are some tiny tears to the sheet along the upper edge, and one small crease at the lower edge. There are some light creases at the upper left, upper right and lower right corners.
The work is float mounted and held behind glass in a simple metal frame.
