Black chalk on laid paper with watermark, 7 1/8 x 9 3/4 in. (18.0 x 24.7 cm), matted, unframed. Condition: Small holes/tears to u.r. quadrant, loss to l.l. corner, foxing, toning, some bleed through from the ink inscription on the reverse, affixed to window mat along edges of the reverse. N.B. The inscription on the reverse provides an attribution to Giovanni Battista Lenardi (Italian, 1656-1704).
