Condition
Colour:
This work is in very good condition, although the overall tonality is slightly deeper and richer in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached verso to the mount in several places and undulates very slightly. The upper edge is deckled. There is some very light mount discolouration along the edges. Extremely close inspection reveals a very thin and almost invisible tear towards the lower edge, approximately 10 cm from the lower left corner, which is possibly original.
