Condition

The print is in generally in good condition as catalogued. The paper tone has darkened due to exposure to light, and the colors are consequently somewhat faded. There are remains of adhesive at the four extreme sheet corners recto (likely from old hinges), with an associated skinned spot at top right. The sheet edges are discolored with time stain and occasional dark fox marks at right. The verso is darkened by mottled mat stain and there are remains of paper hinges at the right sheet edge.
