Condition Report

This work is executed on paper
Verso of sheet is gray in color
Verso of sheet with 2 tape pieces along top edge affixed to undermat. Verso of sheet also has additional tape pieces, including some yellow cellophane pieces not affixed to undermat. Verso of sheet with some notation (partially obscured by tape) and with a thin, narrow sheet of paper inscribed, from old typewriter, "82. Himalayas from Nainital"
This work is in good overall condition, apart from light staining. The outer edges of front of sheet covered by overmat are darker in colour than is rest of sheet. We also note the background is the same gray color (at parts of outer edge originally covered by overmat) as is the verso of the sheet. Further, as seen in catalogue/online photograph, there are some faint grayish vertical lines in part of upper position of sky. Also minor creasing at upper left corner in sky and a rectangular unpainted area in sky at top of sheet, upper left, approx. 1/4" x 1/2". This area appears to have likely originally been covered by a tape piece.
