Gouache et graphite sur papier. Le revers de la feuille est maintenu par des charnières à deux endroits le long du bord supérieur au montage. Le bord inférieur est irrégulier, du probablement au fait que l'œuvre provienne du carnet à dessins de l’artiste. La feuille ondule très légèrement et présente de minuscules froissures de manipulations le long des bords. Trois déchirures restaurées vers le bord droit. Quelques pliures diagonales aplaties vers les coins supérieur droit et inférieur gauche. Le coin supérieur gauche, le coin inférieur gauche, le coin inférieur droit et le centre du bord supérieur ont été restaurés. La feuille est insolée. Des craquelures dans les pigments blancs de la gouache, associées à des manques de gouache par endroits.
Gouache and graphite on paper. The reverse of the sheet is hinged in two places along the upper edge to the mount. The lower edge is uneven probably due to the work being removed from the artist’s sketch book. The sheet undulates very slightly and with minute handling creases along the edges. Three repaired tears towards the right edge. A few diagonal flattened folds towards the upper right and lower left corners. The upper left corner, the lower left corner, the lower right corner and the centre of the upper edge have been restored. The sheet is light-stained. Some craquelures in the white gouache pigments, with associated gouache losses in places.
