Condition
The print is generally in good condition and with full margins. Light and mat stain have significantly darkened the paper tone, darkest at the mat opening. Mat stain is also on the verso. The print has been taped at top and bottom to the backboard using adhesive tape running the length of the upper sheet recto and circa 6 inches at bottom. This piece of tape is now gone but adhesive remains and discoloration are still visible.
