Condition

The print is in good condition as catalogued. Pale mat stain is visible in the margins, darkest at the mat opening.

A 3 1/2 inch flattened crease extends into the upper margin from the upper right sheet corner, well away from the image. There are two tack holes along the extreme lower sheet edge.
