The drawing is in overall good condition. There are three holes in the paper at top, the largest approx. 3/16 in. There is a smudge of surface soiling at the top left at the top edge. The paper has a horizontal hard crease running along the paper at 3/4 in. down from the top, and another small hard crease at the bottom right corner. An approx. 1/2 in. tear is apparent at the top right at left edge. There are a few pin point spots of foxing, for instance at bottom left and one under the hands at bottom right. There is some mat and light staining to the paper. On verso, there is evidence of previous adhesive along the top edge. Additional photographs are available upon request.
