MUGHAL INDIA, LATE 17TH CENTURY

拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

The drawing is laid down on a vertical album folio. There are remains of a cloth binding along the left side. The drawing is laid down vertically so that the folio must be rotated to view the drawing. As visible in the catalogue photograph there is some very minor brown staining in places, above and below the elephant with mahout. There are some tiny white spots (or flakes?) on the elephant - two on the ear, two along the foreleg. The drawing is very well preserved overall.

The folio is slightly warped. The reverse has scuffed marks with a defaced inscription in black pencil.
