Condition

The print is in good condition and the margins are full, with a deckle at all sides. Pale light stain has slightly darkened the paper tone overall and there is minor mat stain in the lower margin and on the verso. There are flattened diagonal creases in the extreme lower left, lower right and upper left sheet corners, the last just barely touching the extreme upper left corner of the image.
