The Collection of Sidney Rothberg, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
This lot is located in Philadelphia.
Condition
In overall good condition. Once unframed, the sheet is entirely loose. With even edges. With pronounced wrinkles across the sheet, in large part due to the medium. Small foxing point at upper left quadrant. The sheet is gently toned, with slightly mat-burnt outer edges. This discoloration transfers through the verso and is likely due to the acidic framing, as the sheet is only protected by another similar sheet and backed by cardboard once in the frame. We would recommend proper matting, and a solid backing board to maintain the sheet flat. With bright colors and a beautifully preserved pastel powder nonetheless. No other sign of restoration, repair, or tear to report. Additional images available upon request.
