Beautifully rendered in mixed media on Bristol board with an image area of 11.75" x 14.75". Slight toning, pinholes and white paint in the margins, notes in the bottom margin, rippling along the top, tape/residue along the back edges, with staining and surface/edge wear. Signed by Evans in the bottom margin and in Very Good condition. Includes two in-progress photos and a correspondence letter from Evans.From the Roger Hill Collection.
