Executed on cream wove paper, laid down on the mount. There are small pin holes to each of the four corners and the sheet is lightly time-stained. The upper and right edges are deckled and the left edge is unevenly cut. The paper is slightly folded at the centre of the very extreme upper edge. There is a possible light studio stain to the lower left corner and the paper has been folded, possibly in the laying down process towards the left of the lower edge, which is not visible when framed. Otherwise this work is in overall good condition.
