This work is in good condition overall. General discolouration of paper and scarcely scattered spots of foxing are consistent with the age of the work. Irregular paper edges are inherent in artist's chosen medium. Minor signs of wear and accretion observed around the four corners. Light creases are observed around four edges of the work. Three minor tears are found on the left and right edge of work. Upon close examination, two pinholes are found, located 4.5 cm from the left and 25.5 cm down from the top, and 4.5 cm from the right and 26.5 cm down from the top. All issues are not visible when framed. Framed under Plexiglass.
