Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down, taped to the overmount at intervals along four edges. All four edges are deckled. There are four minor areas of paper skinning towards all four corners on the reverse, due to previous mounting and only two of which are very slightly visible on the recto. There is tape residue to all four corners and to the centre of the right and left edges, and paper remnants to the upper edge, all on the reverse and due to previous mounting. Apart from some tiny specks of light foxing to the sheet, this work is in overall good condition. Colours: The paper tone is whiter and crisper in the original.
