| Impression |
Very Fine. Nice "bokashi" shading to face, cartouche and background; deep "gauffrage" to both white collars; over-printed hair to produce layers; crisp, highly detailed carving of individual hairlines. |
| Condition |
Good+. Very good colors.
(Minor marks, soiling, wear, and thinning--largely confined to margins).
Full margins, largely unbacked (scattered remnants of old backing). |
