Condition
Under ultra violet light there is no evidence of inpainting. The top layer of the board has been pushed back in the upper left corner. There are some creases surrounding this with a few small losses. The top layer has also been pushed back in the left center as well most likely due to frame abrasions. Otherwise the work is in very good condition.
