Condition
This work is in very good condition. The pigments are overall bright and fresh. Executed on thick cream wove paper, not laid down. The sheet is fixed to the mount at two points on the verso of the upper edge. There are remnants of old framer's tape along the verso of the perimeter. The sheet is very lightly time-darkened and there are a few specks of foxing in the sky towards the center of the left and right edges. Otherwise, fine.
