Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The 4 prints are sewn together with white thread at the interior edges and the ends of the threads extend beyond the prints. The prints are hinged on the reverse intermittently to the backing board. There is a slight undulation to the stitched prints. Under raking light there are a few unobtrusive fine surface scratches and minor evidence of handling. Under very close inspection the extreme lower right corner is slightly dulled. Framed under glass.
