Condition
Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly warmer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached verso to the backing board in numerous places. The lower edge of the sheet is unevenly cut and undulates slightly. Extremely close inspection reveals a few minute specks of foxing in the upper register of the sheet and some light creasing in isolated places.
