Condition
Executed on cream wove paper. The sheet is hinged to a mount in all four corners of its verso. The sheet is slightly time-stained and slightly undulating. The medium remains strong and well-preserved. The left edge is unevenly cut and there are two tiny nicks near the center of the edge. On the verso there are remnants of previous hinges in the lower two corners. The work is in overall very good condition.
