Condition
Executed on white wove paper, not laid down. The sheet is floating in the mount. The side and lower edges are uneven with associated minor flattened creases visible in the lower half of the right edge and the right half of the lower edge. There are four artist's pinholes 5mm from the edges and some very light time-staining. There has been some flaking to the paper in the black pigment inherent to the very thick application of ink. This work is in excellent original condition.
