The work is in very good condition. Executed on white colored wove paper, not laid down. The sheet is affixed to a mount at two places along the top edge on verso. Left edge is cut; top, right and bottom edges are deckled. The signature and indistinct date at upper left are upside down. Slight mat stain around the perimeter, most noticeable at bottom and right edges. A few pindots of foxing scattered throughout. Medium is well preserved overall, though there may be some minor surface abrasion in the red and mustard colored pigments at center right. On the verso a few pencil inscriptions are visible as well as some skinning to the sheet around the extreme edges, likely from a prior mounting.
