Executed on buff-coloured paper laid down on board. There is a pinhead-sized spot and two very thin 3cm. lines of retouching to the lower centre and there are small areas of fluorescence to the bottom of the blue dress, probably retouching. All retouching is visible under UV light. Apart from a small diagonal flattened crease to the upper left corner, this work is in very good condition.
