Etching, 1922, signed in pencil, on wove paper, with wide margins, in good condition apart from minor discoloration in the margins, pale light- and time stain, framed
Condition
The print is in good condition as catalogued and is a nicely inked impression. Exposure to light over time has slightly darkened the paper tone. The sheet edges are trimmed irregularly and there are sharp creases at the extreme sheet edges at top and right. The upper sheet edge has two very short unrepaired tears. Discoloration in the margins consists of a small area of damp stain at bottom, scattered fox marks (most are very tiny), and time stain.
