Condition

Untitled (Couple gazing): There are small spots of foxing visible throughout and two small brown stains to the paper along the right edge. Untitled (Couple sitting): The surface of the paper is slightly undulated and there are small spots of foxing and yellowing of the paper due to age. Small accretions are also visible particularly in the upper right quadrant, as well as a pinhole in the upper right hand corner which is possibly inherent. These works are in good overall condition for their age, as viewed.
