Size: Composition/sheet: 12" x 17.75"; Frame: 21.25" x 27"; (Composition/sheet: 30 x 45 cm)
Signature: Signed lower right sheet; retains Angus Whyte Fine Arts label frame verso
Condition: Excellent original condition. Surface is generally bright and clean. Pinhole perforations to each corner of sheet, and to center of each edge, which has resulted in some minor tearing. Small tear to bottom edge of sheet near center, approximately 4 mm by 3 mm, which was likely caused by a pin. Left edge of sheet with a perforated edge where the work was torn out of a notebook, which has some folding to the fringe. This work was recently treated by a professional conservator to deacidify the work.
