Executed on cream wove paper, laid down on a sheet of restorer's paper, hinged to the mount at all four corners, floating in the mount. There are some repaired tears with some associated paper losses to the upper left and right corners, and to the lower right corner. The sheet is gently time stained and very gently undulating at the edges, due to the laying down process. Some scattered spots of foxing and studio marks. This work is in overall good condition.
