The sheet is sound, not laid down but appears to be secured to the backing card with what appears to be tabs to the reverse. The reverse can not be examined to verify this. Generally in excellent overall condition.

The edges of the sheet are decked, with some inherent tiny tears and creases. The colours are bright and fresh. The sheet may be very slightly time stained. Some craquelure to some thicker areas of gouache.

Held under glass in a white painted wood frame with a cloth backing card.
