Executed on cream laid paper, not laid down, affixed to the mount with plastic transparent supports at all four corners. All four edges are slightly unevenly cut. There are some small areas of stable paint shrinkage to the white pigment and some superficial dust ingrained in the white pigment to the upper left quadrant. The sheet is slightly light stained with a few scattered faint flecks of foxing, primarily to the centre of the lower part of the composition. This work is in overall good condition.
