Condition
Executed on cream wove paper, not laid down and hinged to the mount in two places along the upper edge. The left edge is slightly unevenly cut and the sheet is slightly time-stained with stains associated to previous mounting, visible at the edges and not visible when framed. There are traces of studio dirt towards the lower edge. There is a very faint and flattened crease to the upper left corner. Otherwise this work is in overall very good condition.
