The head of a young man or woman

Red chalk, heightened with white, on faded blue paper;
bears numbering in pencil, upper centre: 21
275 by 206 mm; 10⅞ by 8⅛ in.

Condition Report:
Hinged to a modern mount. The right edge is a little uneven with some slight discoloration to the very edge. There is minor foxing to the sheet and some slight buckling to the upper left corner, probably as a result of an old adhesive tab to the verso. There is a small surface scratch to the lower cheek/chin of the sitter, though this is only visible upon close inspection. The red chalk remains fresh and vibrant throughout this attractive image with the paper retaining a little of its original blue color. Sold unframed.
