Executed on laid paper and attached to the mount in 8 places on the reverse. The upper edge is partly serrated and all four edges are very slightly unevenly cut. The sheet is time stained and undulating in places. There is some very light creasing to the upper left corner and the centre of the upper edge. There are a few tiny spots of paper skinning to the edges on the reverse. There are remnants of an historic adhesive on the verso just visible on the centre of the lower edge and the lower right corner of the recto. There are a few tiny fly spots and spots of foxing only visible upon very close inspection. This work is in overall very good condition.
