Condition

The print is in good condition as catalogued. The only pale fox marks in the image are visible in the dress of the figure at left, just below her chin. Additional fox marks appear in the margins (fewer than 10), including a spot of "reverse" foxing in the stamped signature which has bleached the paper. Pale mat stain is in the outer margins, darkest at the mat opening, as well as on the verso where additional fox marks can be seen which are not visible on the recto.
