Galerie Cardo, Paris
Acquis auprès du précédent puis par descendance au propriétaire actuel

Executed on thick paper, laid down on cardboard. The sheet appears to be easily removed by a restorer. There is some frame abrasion in areas along the extreme edges. There is a slight repaired tear to the lower right corner with some associated paint losses and a small paper loss to the lower left corner. There are three minor tears along the upper edge with minor associated paint losses. There is a slight white accretion in the trunk of the tree on the right (visible on the catalogue illustration). This could be due to the artistic process. This work is in good condition.
