| Physical Description | The item was removed from its original mount as part of the framing process for the Les drôles de petites bêtes d'Antoon Krings exhibition at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris, April-September 2019. The item is now mounted in a hinged double mount, which allows the whole of the item, front and reverse, to be viewed. Please ask for assistance from the Research Room supervisor if you wish to remove the item from its protective polyester sleeve.
The previous mount has resulted in a discoloured border around the actual drawing - everything outside the border was previously hidden by the original mount. |
