拍品的狀況可能存在極大差異，而由於其性質使然，拍品難以處於完美無瑕的狀態。拍品均以拍賣時的狀況出售。

Coloured chalk and oil on paper. Examined within the frame behind glass. The sheet is float mounted, and is secured to a supporting non-acidic board in several places along the reverse sheet edges. The edges of the sheet are uneven, consistent with the artist’s process. There are artist’s pinholes at the upper edge and one in the lower right corner. There is a horizontal crease across the lower quadrant of the sheet, this appears to be contemporary to the time of execution. On close inspection, there are some further minor creases in the lower corners. There is a loss to the upper edge, which appears to have been present at the time of execution and is visible in the illustration.There is some minor surface dirt. Subject to the above, this work appears to be in very good overall condition.
