notes:
- being on parchment and not on simple paper, the artwork looks a little brownish, which is the colour of the parchment. The photos online are different, and may enhance this colour and make it look yellow, up to lights and your screen: just but be confident, it's all perfect! it has never been framed, and always kept in a folder for 50 years. Slightly wavy this piece has an attribution mark,
i am sure that it is completely authentic and take full responsibility for any authenticity
