Thence by descent

This work is in good condition overall. Artist pinholes are present in each of the four corners of the sheet. A minor 1/8-inch vertical tear is present at the extreme upper right corner. A very minor one-inch horizontal crease is present at the upper right edge. The colors are vibrant, and the media layer is stable overall. Two pinpoint spots of media loss are present, one in the upper left quadrant between the figures, and one in the lower left below the baskets. A faint intermittent horizontal band of white accretions is present along the extreme upper edge.
