Condition

Executed on cream laid paper, not laid down, and hinged to the mount in two places along the upper edge. The upper edge is deckled and the lower and left edges are slightly unevenly cut. The sheet is slightly time-stained and there is a diagonal crease to the upper left corner of the sheet, which doesn't cross the image itself. There are a few spots of foxing in places, including a few just above the signature. This work is in overall good condition.
