Aquatint Dimensions and Condition Details
Sheet size: 24 3/4 ” x 19 3/4”
platemark size: 18 3/4” x 15 1/4”
Condition: Very good for being almost 100 years old. The sheet has some age related toning and light stain evident as one can see where a mat once was. The two upper sheet corners have pieces of paper tape and the bottom sheet edge has a very small bit of water damage. It could benefit from a cleaning but is by no means necessary.
