Fairly notable undulation of the paper shows that this work is not laid down, unpainted areas of the paper now showing a fairly even discolouration, this is notable at the bottom at 6 o'clock where a whiter oblong patch shows, presumably where the work has been tabbed down, signed in pencil and dated in the lower right corner, one or two small dirt specks scattered across the work, some of which are on the inside of the glass, in a high quality white card mount and plain painted frame with Connaught Brown label verso.
