Condition
The work is laid down to a window mount along all four outer edges (verso). There are artist's pinholes to the upper left, upper right and lower left corners, with one to the upper centre edge. The right, left and lower edges are deckled.
There are a few gentle handling creases present, with some undulation to the lower and right edges. There is mount staining to the outer edges, with a spot of staining to the lower left corner, and the work has darkened slightly within the mount. Some minor surface dirt is present, with some spots of foxing.
In our opinion, the work is in overall good condition.
