Condition

The print is in good condition as catalogued. The lower sheet edge was previously folded back and a flattened crease now appears 1 1/2 inches from the lower sheet edge. This crease has been backed with Japan at left and right to stabilize it. There is a window of light-stain around the image which has subsequently slightly faded the colors, and pale mat stain is visible in the outer margins. There is a vertical crease along the lower left sheet edge measuring circa 5 inches.
