Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. Minor yellowing and undulation of paper is consistent with the age and nature of the medium. A very minor scratch is visible only upon close examination, located on the bottom edge 4 cm away from the bottom left corner. Two brown marks located on the top center area of the work are inherent to the artist's chosen medium. Please note that this work was examined within its frame. Framed in glass.
