A superb impression, on cream laid paper, with full margins (1 3/4 inches all sides). Slight toning to the center left and center right sheet edges verso, where previously taped; otherwise in excellent condition.

The composition was completed in the first state; in the second minor changes were made (i.e., lines representing snow were added at upper left to garbage cans, woman’s coat, and to the stonework at right and in foreground; shading added on umbrella; signature added at lower left).

Lewis initially called this Stoops in Snow – West Forties, then shortened it.
