Slight undulation of the paper, ink a dark brown colour, ground paper off white. A few light damp spots and hint of acid staining around the mount but overall fair to good condition. Inscription on the mount which is heavily foxed (although half of what can be seen is on the glass rather than the work). Original reeded and gilt frame in fair order.
