Condition
Executed on cream-colored laid paper. Sheet is T-hinged to a mat at the upper corners and upper center on the verso. The extreme perimeter of the sheet has been reinforced with tape. There is a mat stain of approximately 1 cm along the perimeter of the recto which is significantly thinner along the right edge of the sheet. While the sheet is somewhat time-darkened overall, the line remains strong. The work is titled "St. John's Church, Lüneburg" by another hand on the reinforcing tape at the extreme lower edge of the sheet. Overall the work is in very good condition.
