Condition Report*: A fragrant image of lilies, a strong impression with pleasant colors. The condition of the work is consistent with its age.

Some scattered, isolated marks. A few negligible, extremely small (smaller than a pinhole), scattered holes to sheet. A few small repairs, one along right edge extending about 1-1/2" into sheet, about 1/4" in width; another repair (1/4" x 1/2"), lower left quadrant in the light blue area. Some minor skinned areas along extreme verso edges of sheet. A centerfold crease line with some mild creasing/handling dent throughout sheet. Henri Vever's collector mark in red ink, lower right corner. Unframed. No tears or unrepaired losses observed.
