There are two minor spots of staining in the sky, visible in the catalogue illustration and a small old scuff mark in the sky below the upper right edge otherwise in good overall condition. Held in a stained plaster frame under glass; unexamined out of frame. The pencil tones are slightly more subtle than the catalogue illustration suggests.
